They should also contrast the X-Gene situation with other systems so we can see why X-Gene has this problem when other systems don't. I'm not thrilled about all the ACPI code this adds, but I'm guessing there'll be some better solution eventually. I'm going to mark these as "changes requested" even though I haven't asked for anything specific to be changed because it sounds like Lorenzo et al. may have more concrete proposals soon. Are there currently systems that do not work and need to be fixed ASAP? Bjorn
