Hi

Does one get something out of adding code to the DSDT for ones machine, or would the machine simply ignore it? I was thinking of adding some methods for my sound system, and my modem. Could adding unauthorized code damage the hardware?

Are there a better place to get advice for writing DSDT etc? (email list/news group or a url for tutorial/manual)

best regards
keld
