Hi,

Yes, I agree with.  I know ACPI4Linux page's
http://phobos.fs.tum.de/acpi/bios.sql, but maybe what we (and BIOS
vendor also?) want to know is BIOS bug fix infomation.

> It would be nice to eventually create a port...

I think we should not distribute any DSDT binary files...
Bug info. and some patches would be enough.

> If you agree and nobody else volunteers, I'd be willing to maintain this.

Great!  please :-)

Thanks
