Maybe some of those people just didn't realize it was disabled in BIOS? If you tell users that it's a firmware bug then they'll probably just give up. > The itself message might be an enhancment, IMO it's not worth a patch. Why do you think so? I spent an hour on hunting down the BIOS upgrade, only to find that it didn't improve anything. It was a day later that I realized that it might be a BIOS option; and the option was literally the _last_ option in the whole BIOS setup. :) This message would have saved the day. > But do not revert the FW_BUG part! Sure, you have a point here. How about this patch? |
