[PATCH] platform/x86: asus-wmi: try to set als by default

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

 



some laptops, for example ASUS UX330UAK, have brocken als_get function
but working als_set funktion. In this case, ALS will stay turned off.

             Method (WMNB, 3, Serialized)
            {
	    ...
               If (Local0 == 0x53545344)
                {
		...
                    If (IIA0 == 0x00050001)
                    {
                        If (!ALSP)
                        {
                            Return (0x02)
                        }

                        Local0 = (GALS & 0x10)    <<<---- bug,
                                                    should be: (GALS () & 0x10)
                        If (Local0)
                        {
                            Return (0x00050001)
                        }
                        Else
                        {
                            Return (0x00050000)
                        }
                    }

             .....
                If (Local0 == 0x53564544)
                {
		...
                    If (IIA0 == 0x00050001)
                    {
                        Return (ALSC (IIA1))
                    }

Since it works without problems on Windows I assume ASUS WMI driver for Win
never trying to get ALS state, and instead it is setting it by default to ON.

This patch will do the same. Turn ALS on by default.
