No. I added some (platform specific) code to the Intel ACPICA sources which can read the ACPI tables from memory without the need of a new driver. OS/2 already has all what's required. At present only the IASL tools is ported (from the compiler subdirectory), but I will do the same for the other tools in the \source\tools directory as well - especially the executer! First I will clean up my current changes/additions to the common and IAL stuff into a diff-ball so that others can play with it as well. A 64bit capable C compiler is required, I use the same as the one in the IBM build system (VisualAge C/C++ v3.6.5fp2+). Mozilla uses this one as well. >what is the next step, and what can I do to help out ? May be creating a CVS tree from the acpica-win-20021118.zip (\source subdirectory only) sources, then applying the upcoming diff-ball and creating a CVS version from this ? >oh and did you post this to the mailing list already ? I did, you should have gotten a mail through the list already. This time is the last one I will CC you, reply through list only, please. Ciao, Dani PS: the attached DSL is from my Dell P4 notebook. Very interesting stuff (devices, configuration, irq routing, events) ! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Daniela Engert, systems engineer at MEDAV GmbH Gräfenberger Str. 32-34, 91080 Uttenreuth, Germany Phone ++49-9131-583-348, Fax ++49-9131-583-11
