------- Comment #13 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2008-08-27 20:49 -------
During my test, both windows XP and Vista still enable the thermal zone even if
the critical threshold is below 0C.
e.g. if _crt returns 2000, and _tmp returns 1900, we don't see anything
unusual.
but if _crt return 2000, and _tmp returns 2010, windows will shutdown.

So I'm afraid commit a39a2d7c72b358c6253a2ec28e17b023b7f6f41c is not the right
solution for this problem.

IMO, in order to fix this problem,
1) evaluating _CRT should fail, rather than return an arbitrary value in the
current ACPICA code.
2) thermal driver should either ignore the critical trip point or ignore the
whole thermal zone.
This seems to be what we've done in the past, before ACPICA 20070320 released,
but I think it's the right way to go.
