please tell the developers of this code to push their changes upstream. Fedora stays as close to the mainline kernel as possible. If we carried updates to various drivers, we'd end up with something completely unmaintainable, and impossible to convince upstream developers to look at. I suppose this is not a "various driver", then... http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/kernel/linux-2.6-acpi-thinkpad-c2c3.patch?rev=1.1&view=log Nevermind, I now know what the IBM stuff is for. In the meantime, I documented my toshiba_acpi modifications at: http://the.taoofmac.com/space/HOWTO/Enable%20Toshiba%20Bluetooth%20Support%20In%20Fedora%20Core%204 If you'd be so kind as to drop me a line telling me whom to contact or how to go about doing it, I'll gladly get it into kernel.org... that thinkpad patch got merged because without it, it prevents installation. feature requests go upstream. The upstream maintainer of Toshiba_ACPI is John Belmonte, so send a mail to him at toshiba_acpi and hopefully he'll merge your changes in for a future upstream kernel release. Thanks. |
