I do not have a good plan-of-attach, or preferred-approach to offer unfortunately. You and Maxim have already started the additional information gathering process, which would be my only guidance at this point. We need to characterize the hardware and the interfaces as exposed through ACPI. Quirks would be OK if we can't just match on different HIDs (it appears the same HID is being used for radically different hardware unfortunately). -- Darren Hart Intel Open Source Technology Center -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe platform-driver-x86" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
