Thank you for your comments and insights. This effort can only address a partial DSDT solution, and initially the primary concern is getting the correct information up about the tools and methods required to extract needed files for a system (and to then make those files available). If that information is correct, novice users should be able to contribute. An initial draft with about 25 dsdt is up with request for comment at : http://www.fileandstream.com/proc/acpi/dsdt.htm In terms of 'help': 1. if there are any volunteers to review a 'sandbox' for any new dsdt/acpidumps/etc that come in please let me know; 2. review of extraction information and procedures for a variety of systems, including better information about how to get some of the tools (dmidecode, acpidump, etc) for a variety of linux distros. There are several linked pages on usage and ways to gather information for contribution as well on that site; comments are welcome to me directly rather than clogging these lists. --------------------------------------- Scott Thompson / postfail@xxxxxxxxxxxx --------------------------------------- -- 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
