Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2007-04-25 20:10:13 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release.  Product Management has requested
further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed
products.  This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update
release.

Comment 6 David Zeuthen 2007-06-25 23:09:14 UTC
This is now in hal-0.5.8.1-20.el5 - it was a bit of nitty-gritty work to do as a
number of other subsystems in HAL needed an update - so it ended up being three
patches and 11 fdi files 20-video-quirk-pm-*.fdi

I've taken the quirks from current hal-info as of today (which is F7 + a few
updates) and will leave it to Florian/Phil and QE to test and update these
quirks.  Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.


Comment 8 Cameron Meadors 2007-09-25 18:36:30 UTC
I want to veriry that the work done for this was only infrastructure and no
quirks were added.

That is correct. The quirks are tracked in other bugs including bug 251496.

Comment 10 Cameron Meadors 2007-09-26 21:10:23 UTC
Verified by the fact that quirks are used when gnome-power-manager calls suspend.
