I posted[1] a dmi patches a bit ago on qemu-devel for this. There was a better solution that involved fixing up the BIOS bits (bochs and qemu). That patch is available as well on qemu-devel. I've not see any indication of when either bochs or qemu will pick up the DMI changes. Until then you'll have to patch it in yourself. This is the latest revision AFAIK: http://marc.info/?l=qemu-devel&m=120083547021821&w=2 1. http://marc.info/?l=qemu-devel&m=119740418021275&w=2 -- Ryan Harper Software Engineer; Linux Technology Center IBM Corp., Austin, Tx (512) 838-9253 T/L: 678-9253 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
