I know HPs with a broken critical trip point of 256C. I currently try to convince people for a: FIRMWARE_BUG (severity, descritpion, component) interface in the kernel. IMO Intel's linuxfirmwarekit where you have to write scripts to check for BIOS bugs is not worth much. - Have of the bugs are already aborbed/ignored/workarounded in kernel. - No kernel hacker has the time to write these scripts - It's often a one liner to mark bugs as firmware bugs in the kernel and this also documents the kernel a bit better I don't have much time, but IMO we really need a better BIOS checking... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
