If that's true, it's going to be even harder making the cross-platform Linux PM framework do what it needs to do. Having various devices (not just laptop lids or power buttons, or RTC alarms) wake systems from low power states is pretty fundamental to the "P" part of ACPI. And it's not like wakeup events are unique to ACPI. > If you can't merge > patches yourself, perhaps someone interested (Tobias? me?) can push > them for you? I kind of think the ACPI team needs to just become more responsive. They helped Windows do this stuff; why has Linux only seen delays and obstacles in this area? -- 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
