A possible solution would be: (replacing the zero length > filename with the string "NULL") What about using some string that is not a valid table name? Shorter than 4 characters? AFAICT, 'NULL' table could be added to acpi in future...? What if *two* tales have empty signature? -- (english) http://www.livejournal.com/~pavelmachek (cesky, pictures) http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/picture/horses/blog.html -- 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
