------- Comment #12 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-09-24 12:02 ------- Hi, I tryed the patchs that you indicated above. I wanted to know wich patch solved the problem, so I decided to patch one by one, removing the last one before I applied the next (this way I could verify if it was a combination of patches or only one patch that solved the problem). The last patch add to be done manually, because the patch would only be completly successfull if there was other patches applyed. After four Kernell rebuilds and four reboots, the patch that solved the issue was the last one. I was never fan of delays to fix problems (even though this is a hardware problem, as you say). When I was manually patching I notice that the code wouldn't activate the poll mode anymore, so I wanted to ask if instead of adding more delay when a storm occurs, if we could enable the poll mode. For example, when the first storm occurs add the delay to prevent the next, when the second one occurs put it to poll mode. Is it a good idea? I guess it wont make much difference but isnt it saffer to be in poll mode than in interrupt mode when we have a faulty hardware that causes "thunders"? (I don't quite understand the difference between the two, only that one is activated by hardware interrupts??). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ acpi-bugzilla mailing list acpi-bugzilla@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/acpi-bugzilla
