Hi 1) I saw the _SUN object in DSDT table as "Name (_SUN, 0x01)", is this means that this slot number is fixed or is that going to change at run-time. 2) Is there any other way to get the PCI slot number using ACPI tables? 3) How do I know that a perticular slot is populated, in user space. Is there any system call to know that? 4) Is it possible to override the AML, if yes can you please tell us how to do it? On 1/19/07, Bruno Ducrot <ducrot@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

They are defined under DSDT or RSDT tables as any other ACPI objects populating the ACPI namespace. > 2) How this DSDT table get updated? They can't be updated. > 3) Is DSDT table is static binary file or it can be dynamically updated? A DSDT table is not a static binary file. On most i386 or amd64 architectures, DSDT and SSDT are part of the BIOS. The BIOS uncompressed and copyied them into main memory at the POST stage since the ROM is too limited in size. > 4) Who will update the DSDT tables? By the customer via BIOS updates obtained from the vendor. Cheers, -- Bruno Ducrot -- Which is worse: ignorance or apathy? -- Don't know. Don't care.
