System Information Manufacturer: FUJITSU SIEMENS Product Name: AMILO Pa 2510 Version: 20 Serial Number: 12345678 UUID: 006581C7-5E2A-DB11-B7FE-D1AD14F053E9 Wake-up Type: Power Switch SKU Number: 12345678 Family: AMILO Handle 0x0002, DMI type 2, 8 bytes Base Board Information Manufacturer: FUJITSU SIEMENS Product Name: F37 Thanks for the dmidecode output. Do you notice any functional difference when booting with "acpi_osi=Linux" (default for 2.6.22 and earlier) vs. "acpi_osi=!Linux" (default for 2.6.23 and later) Also, please send me the output from acpidump. thanks, -Len ps If you don't have acpidump, you can get it from pmtools here: http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/acpi/utilities.php - 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
