Hi Ming-Li,

On 07 January 2001 at 05:32:13 -0800 (which was 13:32 where I
live) Ming-Li wrote and made these points:

It's the BIOS.

ML> Please tell me then where I can find this standard.

There  isn't one - only a general "norm" to which some, but not all,
adhere and it all depends on the BIOS at root.

Can  we  please  take  this  discussion off-list (that's an official
instruction,  not a request). It may seem to be TB related, but it's
not.  It's  about  BIOS,  OS and Application interactions and varies
from system to system.

Anyway  - there's no further to take this on-list, so the horse just
died :-).
