[PATCH] When the "hardware" switch is disabled, don't actually allow changing the softblock status.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The "hardware" switch is tied directly to a BIOS interface that will connect and 
disconnect the hardware from the bus.

If you use the software interface to request the BIOS to make these changes, the HW
switch will be in an inconsistent state and LEDs may not reflect the state of the HW.
