The only other vendors I really have in mind are HP and Fujitsu, since both those vendors use WMI on their laptops, so they would be my most likely candidates to have WMI on an IA64 box (if anyone actually does use WMI on IA64). Len: You can either add a 'depends on X86' to WMI when you apply patch #1 from the second WMI series; or I can send another patch out later on top of this series to do this, once you replace the old patches in acpi-test - whichever is easiest for you) -Carlos -- E-Mail: carlos@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web: strangeworlds.co.uk GPG Key ID: 0x23EE722D - 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
