In IRC, mjg59: If it can only be fixed in the DSDT, your options are either to get a fixed BIOS or to generate a fixed DSDT and put it in the right place for mkinitramfs to pick it up Does that mean I have to compile a kernel, or is there a short cut that will A) be quicker and B) allow me to upgrade the kernel when new ones come out in the repos. ^Carl Karsten
