IMPORTANT: I've uploaded a new powernow driver.
The old powernow driver will cause immediate PANICs when run on
Solaris Express build 32 or later.
YOU MUST INSTALL THE UPDATED DRIVER PRIOR TO INSTALLING BUILD 32+
The new powernow driver works on all releases.
The powernow driver is also a bit more lenient about the format
of the _PSS table as BIOS manufacturers feel it's OK to fill the
table with assorted junk entries.
If you've install frkit from the laptops download page, upgrading
is as simple as:
# frkit
I've also updated the acpidrv driver:
- it's powerbutton handling is disasbled by default when
using a Nevada build with the x86 native power driver
- the Thermal zone handling caused system hangs on the
Acer Travelmate 660; the bug was root caused and fixed.
(as a result, Thermal handling should also be a bit
CPU "lighter")
These fixes only affect systems where at boot a message
about an active thermal zone appears.
