Subject: RE: smartbattery support
Date: Thu, 7 Oct 2004 21:43:20 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <16A54BF5D6E14E4D916CE26C9AD30575456AB2@pdsmsx402.ccr.corp.intel.com> (raw)

You needed an EC-based SMBus host driver (IIRC, some Acer latops defined
such host in DSDT). ACPI spec has the definition for EC-based SMBus host
interface. Second, a sensor driver for reading smart battery information
is required.

Thanks,
Shaohua
