Hi,
I've update the patch based on some comments so far and added wmpm
(actually ACPI support for wmapm which is utility for WindowMaker)
ports files as a example.

Hi,
I've created new common framework on generalized power-management
interface for userland utilities.

This provides some PM APIs to APM applications, such as wmapm, so that
these applications can be ported smoothly to use ACPI (pow

and it's links.
It is related with quite wide areas, not only for power management.

Hi, here is the latest (and maybe final?) report on our ACPI project's
progress.
We are ready now to merge our work on ACPI into main source tree!

Hi,

/sys/dev/nulldev/nulldev.c in 5.0-CURRENT/RELENG_4,
/sys/i386/i386/mem.c or /sys/alpha/alpha/mem.c in RELENG_3 IIRC.
Good luck.

Hi, here is the latest report on our ACPI project's progress.
Current status:
The aml interpreter development is going on and we've ported it to
kernel simultaneously. Now that we can build ACPI namespace and

I'm working on new pccard.conf scheme, /etc/defaults/pccard.conf and

2. changed available io, irq, mem pool so that they can be overridden.
