I've been wondering about the 'acpi over smm' problems mentioned on this list in Oct '04 for a while now - the problem doesn't seem to get mentioned, yet I couldn't find a resolution in the list archives (I could have missed it though). (I mean the thread "Latency issues with laptops", at http://music.columbia.edu/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2004-October/016545.html ) Does anyone know what the current state of play with this is? Did the blacklist ever materialise, and is there any method of detecting whether a particular laptop has the issue? Cheers, - Pete.
