I aassume you mean the patch to eeepc-acpi-scripts.
Can you also try the stock unstable kernel (2.6.30)? That would be
appreciated by unstable users.
The current code in the init script says:
# Load pciehp if required.
# There are three recognised cases:
# - kernel 2.6.26 & older: two parameters required
# - kernel 2.6.27 & .28 : one of those parameters has been removed
# - kernel 2.6.29 & newer: hotplugging is handled in eeepc-laptop
This means pciehp_force=1 is used on anything prior to 2.6.29 (plus
pciehp_slot_with_bus=1 with 2.6.26 and older).
Does this sound right for madwifi (.26) and ath5k (.27+)?
On related note, I see the eeepc-acpi-scripts patch removed
workarounds that are not necessary and only add noise. The real fix
for the ath5k problems is in eeepc-laptop, right? What is the status
of your patch to that? Also, until the patch reaches Debian, is there
other workaround we may want to implement in eeepc-acpi-scripts?
Thanks for your work on this issue!
