Hi Linus, please pull from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-acpi-2.6.git release Fixes a 2.6.34 regression, and works around a machine that went into an infinite AML loop in the name of Vista+Nvidia compatibility. This will update the files shown below. thanks! -- Len Brown Intel Open Source Technology Center ps. individual patches are available on linux-acpi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and a consolidated plain patch is available here: http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/patches/2.6.36/acpi-release-20100702-2.6.36-rc7.diff.gz drivers/acpi/blacklist.c | 17 +++++++++++++++++ drivers/acpi/processor_core.c | 1 + 2 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) through these commits: Lee, Chun-Yi (1): ACPI: add DMI to disable AML Vista compatibility on MSI GX723 Notebook Yinghai Lu (1): ACPI: Handle ACPI0007 Device in acpi_early_set_pdc with this log: commit 7cfff7f21221725f587ba90bd1acf0e2e0304901 Merge: c9933f7 3deb11e Author: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Oct 8 22:37:46 2010 -0400 Merge branch 'msi-dmi' into release commit c9933f795c0740eaf97e6291a68a9787346d5997 Merge: cb655d0 c1e0ddb Author: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Oct 8 22:35:02 2010 -0400 Merge branch 'pdc-regression' into release commit 3deb11ef16632fb76daead0db281f6f7d19332f2 Author: Lee, Chun-Yi <jlee@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Oct 1 16:28:29 2010 +0800 ACPI: add DMI to disable AML Vista compatibility on MSI GX723 Notebook The brightness control hotkey don't work with Vista compatibility because the MSI GX723 includes an infinite while loop in DSDT when brightness control hotkey pressed. The MSI GX723 uses Nvidia video. Perhaps the loop is specific to the Nvidia Vista driver... This patch should be reverted once nouveau grows support to call the ACPI NVIF method.

SSDTs for Pstate/Cstate/Tstate can not be loaded dynamically. Need to try to scan ACPI0007 in addition to Processor. That commit is between 2.6.34-rc1 and 2.6.34-rc2, so stable tree for 2.6.34+ need this patch.
