--- Comment #16 from Steve Hill <st...@nexusuk.org>  2010-07-28 15:45:08 ---
This can be worked around without recompiling the kernel now - recent kernels
allow runtime patching of single DSDT methods from userland, so I've
implemented the workaround here:
http://subversion.nexusuk.org/projects/acer_dsdt/trunk/

The question of what the kernel policy is regarding workarounds for firmware
bugs that will never be fixed by the vendor has not been explained - can anyone
shed some light on this?
