Re: [patch 2/2] acpi: Avoid dropping rapid hotkey events (or other GPEs) on Asus EeePC

Hi Alan,
That patch is old news already...
There is a new shiny one appended to 9998/10724/11549...
Please give it a try. It does disable GPE, but for very small duration.

Regards,
Alex.

Sounds sensible. Hopefully we're right that most systems with these
broken EC's don't want the workaround. I assume you will still notify
the user automatically, something like "acpi: ec: GPE storm detected,
try booting with ec=poll".

My apologies.  I seem to have tested this but neglected to reply :-(.

I've been running with this for a week or so now.  I've been bashing the
hotkeys (and holding down the ones with autorepeat), and it works fine. Plus I get the message in the kernel log suggesting ec_intr=0 if the
keyboard doesn't work.  It's all good.

Thanks
Alan
