Hi all,
AFAIK ubuntu includes a patch to allow dynamic loading of alternate AML code
dumps, to work around bios ACPI bugs. I know BIOS's and the kernel ACPI code
are getting betterm but for some laptops this is needed, any chance this could
be included into the Fedora kernel?
Also any chance of getting this included upstream?
The Intel ACPI maintainers are really against including that patch,
and express dismay that other vendors that do include it.
From conversation I've had with LenB, he's pretty happy that
we don't
include it. Keeping the upstream maintainers happy so that
they're
interested in looking at our bugs is far more useful in the long run imo.
