[Bug 1936678] Re: Samsung Laptop support module doesn't load

2021-07-26 Thread Alex Hung
The below patch is still in place so samsung-laptop will not work on
EFI.

commit e0094244e41c4d0c7ad69920681972fc45d8ce34
Author: Matt Fleming 
Date:   Thu Jan 3 09:02:37 2013 +

samsung-laptop: Disable on EFI hardware


This is also before the DMI quirks, ex. 

if (efi_enabled(EFI_BOOT))
return -ENODEV;

quirks = _unknown;
if (!force && !dmi_check_system(samsung_dmi_table))
return -ENODEV;

I am not aware of any updates on Samsung vs. Linux with EFI. It is
really up to Samsung to make sure their BIOS doesn't get corrupted, so I
guess this bug is a "won't fix".

Alex,
Does https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 still apply? I’m 
running under UEFI, not BIOS, and I don’t want to brick this machine.

Please run "sudo modprobe samsung-laptop force". The "force" parameter
will disable DMI check.

If you can load samsung-laptop this way, we can try to add your DMI
information to this driver.
