Applied.

thanks,

I see the changelog here:
http://lkml.org/lkml/mbox/2005/9/8/30

The two bugs and patches, I sent are fixed in this tree (event if I'm not credited for this fix:

Added a check for a null RSDT pointer in
acpi_get_firmware_table (tbxfroot.c) to prevent a fault in this error case.

Perhaps you fixed it too. Doesn"t really matter in fact).

Thank you.

(Sorry for this late answer, i was in holiday for a week and half).

Regards.
