Since Rui's patch is an incremental to netlink events, which are new in 2.6.23, I'm going to request Rui's patch for inclusion in 2.6.23. I'm also going to include "[PATCH] ACPI: Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal" with it. They'll both be in the acpi-test tree upon my next push, probably tonight. maybe go to Linus as soon as tomorrow since delay in the -rc3 timeframe would be folly. thanks, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
