Thomas, re: OSI(Windows...) Linux will continue to claim OSI compatibility with Windows until the day when the majority of Linux systems have passed a Linux compatibility test rather than a Windows compatibility test. Re: OSI(Linux) I've looked at O(100) DSDT's that look at OSI(Linux), and all but serveral systems from two vendors do it by mistake. They simply copied it from the bugged Intel reference code. OSI(Linux) will _never_ be restored to Linux, ever. re: the HP BIOS bug at hand. Linux deletes the entire thermal zone when we see this. (arguably, we could have just disabled the CRT and kept the rest of the thermal zone). If HP cared about testing Linux on this laptop and had tools such that they could actually test Linux compatiblity, it would be pretty clear from user-space that their thermal zone was missing. 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
