Re: [ACPI-sppt] ASUS centrino laptop DSDT reward !

Hello Mads,

nowadays I've an ASUS M3N and as u know I experienced the same problem 
w/ the /fan/ and the /thermal/ module. All my efforts (for those who 
haven't resolved the problem yet) r on my site's project section, 
http://luca.pca.it/projects/.

About ur enquiry, I'd like to help directly in testing/programming (even 
if my programming skills r not so developped). In these days I'm working 
at another small project about ASUS laptops: I'm making a small tool to 
manage the hotkeys via the general ACPI daemon /acpid/, tool based on 
the 'acpi4asus' (http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpi4asus/). So, as 
another project about ACPI on ASUS notebook is already started, I think 
we could merge this project in order to give better support to ACPI on 
ASUS notebook. To do so, I sent this mail even to the main developer for 
the 'acpi4asus' package.

Please, u and all the others interesting in ur and my enquiry, please 
let me know what u think about.

Regards,
Gismo / Luca
