It's a perfectly safe workaround that's limited to a well-bounded set of machines and fixes a pretty serious problem with them. While I'd prefer my approach and then a removal of the existing quirk entries, Alex's patch makes more sense for stable. The BIOS update is as yet unreleased, requires either Windows or an optical drive (which some of these machines don't have) and is a far from discoverable solution to the issue. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@...f.ucam.org -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
