According to responses from the BIOS team, ASUS_WMI_METHODID_DSTS2 (0x53545344) will be used as future DSTS ID. In addition, calling asus_wmi_evaluate_method(ASUS_WMI_METHODID_DSTS2, 0, 0, NULL) returns ASUS_WMI_UNSUPPORTED_METHOD in new ASUS laptop PCs. This patch fixes no DSTS ID will be assigned in this case.

You also can want next 12.2 kernel release then test. Or, if you want, I built a asus-wmi-kmp for testing: https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries?package=asus-wmi-kmp&project=home%3Ajoeyli%3Abranches%3AopenSUSE%3A12.2%3AUpdate&repository=standard -- 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.
