On Sept. 2004 the 3.0 specification has been released. Change description is: Major specification revision. General configuration enhancements. Inter-Processor power, performance, and throttling state dependency support added. Support for > 256 processors added. NUMA Distancing support added. PCI Express support added. SATA support added. Ambient Light Sensor and User Presence device support added. Thermal model extended beyond processor-centric support. Does implementing these specifications (and maybe also 2.0) correctly would help making fbsd more fluid with talking to hardware including most recent MB ? How often is motherboards' AML critic ? How many of you are working on it (how long / month) and how (partly / exclusively) ? I am thinking about working on it, depending on the time I can spend (still student in physics (graduate), preparing also PhD in nanomaterials and piano concert for 2006). MP
