[PATCH] SMM BIOS on Dell i8100

From: Stephane Jourdois (stephane@tuxfinder.org)
Date: Mon Nov 05 2001 - 04:03:46 EST


Hello,

First, a very big thanx to Massimo for this great piece of code :-)
I've been trying to catch those events with no sucess for weeks.

I've got a Dell Inspiron 8100, which seems to differ slightly from
i8000. Here is a patch that fixes that. Please do not hesitate to ask me
to test some new code or anything on my laptop.

You should also replace your printk("string") with printk(KERN_INFO "string")

PS : Massimo, which version of setmixer do you use ? mine doesn't
support {+|-}val syntax... (debian sid, setmixer 27DEC94-4)

Thanks,
