The problem seems that a lot of=20 the newer Fujitsu laptops don't have all the features of the older=20 ones (ACPI-wise). Currently the logic of acpi_fujitsu expects=20 everything to be available or it will fail to attach. I'll see if I=20 can whip up a small fix that will allow each thing to be conditional. =20 If you want, comment out the GVOL/SVOL stuff from the driver and see=20 if you can get it to attach. > > Bottom line is: I would really love to have ACPI fully functional, > and while my C skills are rather rusty at this point, I am more > than willing to experiment on this laptop with any patches that > might be available out there (though I couldn't find any).
