OS/4 Compatibility

[diver]

according to the OS/4 developer the following would be enough to be compatible with it.

In file 'krnlfix.c' function void KernelFix(void) in the very beginning there should be:

if ((ULONG)&_KernKEEVersion > 0x10000)
{
   Setup.SRKrnl = 1;
   KrnlVersion = 1;
   return;
}

Sorry, but this is not correct. I already told "the OS/4 developer" exactly what was wrong/incompatible with his code. This has nothing to do with it.

I guessed that this happens. Right now it seems that one of the OS/4 devs thinks thats the right solution. I have no idea if it's true or not. All I know is that OS/4 and acpi are not compatible. And all I try is to overcome that little (or is it a big one) problem.

Can you please share with us publicly, what exactly is "wrong/incompatible with his code"?

The "OS/4 developer" you are talking about is most probably not the one we are talking about. :)

Replying to diver:

No it is not true.

This discussion is not appropriate here. This not a defect nor a problem with the PSD nor any other component of the ACPI project. It is not a design goal for the PSD to be compatible with anything other than the stated software. That being said, I am willing to discuss this in a private email. There will be no further discusson on this topic here and this ticket will be closed.

Don't worry :) I write you in private and close this ticket.
