No, my point is that there's little benefit in providing EV_SW if the initial value is going to be wrong. Software simply can't depend on it. The code's absolutely fine, but there's a risk that it'll break otherwise working desktops until we know how to set the initial value. -- 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
