We need to know the precise behaviour of Windows in this case. It's clearly using the 32-bit values by default, but we are currently unsure whether it's taking them from the FADT pointed to by the RSDT or the XSDT. My patch assumes the latter. I suspect that this is better than Linux's current behaviour and so I think we should push it anyway (though perhaps not until the 2.6.29 timeframe), but confirmation as to its correctness would be helpful. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- 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
