Hi Daniel,

thanks for tracking down the commit. Also, please don't forget to CC the 
commit author in such cases :)

Could you please send a dmidecode output from your system, so that we can 
compare it to the one provided by Christopher, as he as the system that 
apparently needs the nomux quirk to work correctly? It's indeed possible 
that there are various systems out there, and the DMI match has to be made 
more strict.

Thanks,
