I am just one of the interested parties. I have been burned by halfway-done jobs in the kernel once-too-many already IMO, so I am sticking around the threads to make sure THIS time, at least I will also be at fault if it is done wrong. The fact that Lenovo (and therefore, ThinkPads) is one of the vendors directly affected by OSI(Linux) issues, has a LOT to do with my continued participation on this issue, too. The saner the ThinkPad firmware is, from a Linux standpoint, the better for me. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
