Yes, if you override entire DSDT it can be fixed for many bugs at once. > I will probably do a blog post on this (some people have asked me > to do some blogposts about how to analyze DSDT-s, this will be a nice > example) and add a link to the DSDT override to the blogpost, I believe > that this is the best we can do for users of this device. Perhaps above mentioned project somehow can be extended to keep DSDT ASL code for overriding? Mika? [1]: https://github.com/westeri/meta-acpi/ -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
