Does acpi_wmi have to depend on acpi_ec so strongly as it does now? The reason I am asking is that I have a desktop system that seems to provide "something WMI", but doesn't have an EC: http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/ga-ma780g-ud3h/acpi.asl I use the following crude hack: http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/ga-ma780g-ud3h/acpi_wmi.diff With the hack acpi_wmi attaches nicely and here is some data: $ cat /dev/wmistat GUID INST EXPE METH STR EVENT OID {ABBC0F6A-8EA1-11D1-00A0-C90629100000} 1 NO WMAA NO NO AA {05901221-D566-11D1-B2F0-00A0C9062910} 1 NO NO NO NO BA I am not sure how to proceed next and if I can actually get anything useful with WMI on this system. For now I extracted binary MOF file stored in WQBA and used wmimofck utility (from Windows Driver Kit) on it. The following is the resulting header file: http://people.freebsd.org/~avg/ga-ma780g-ud3h/wq.h Any advice on what I could try next? Thank you in advance. P.S. Sorry for packing two distinct questions into the same posting. -- Andriy Gapon
