[Martin Juhl <mj@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have tried using the script and the asus-module on my Alienware M11X R2... 

There doesn't seems to be a mux in this computer, anything I can do??? 

martin@falcon ~ $ query_dsdt -d . -tokens VGA:EGP:OFF:ON | sort -nk1 
04 DSDT.dsl { EGP => 12 OFF => 1 ON => 16 VGA => 2 } 

martin@falcon ~ $ query_dsdt -d . 
03 DSDT.dsl { 0xA4, 0x24, 0x8D, 0x10, 0x08, 0x9D, 0x16, 0x53 => 1 0xA6, 0xFA, 0xDD, 0x3D, 0x1B, 0x36, 0xB4, 0x4E => 1 _DSM => 19 }

Hi Albert, 

I ran your script on my DSL file and got the following results: 

amurray@summer:~/acpi_call$ perl query_dsdt.pl -d ./ -tokens VGA:EGP:OFF:ON 
03 DSDT.dsl { EGP => 7 ON => 24 VGA => 2 } 
amurray@summer:~/acpi_call$ perl ./query_dsdt.pl -d ./ 
01 DSDT.dsl { _DSM => 6 } 
amurray@summer:~/acpi_call$ 

How do I use this information with acpi_call to switch my graphics 
card - or is it not that simple? Documentation on the process from 
taking a DSL file to doing something useful would be useful. 

Thanks, 

Andrew Murray
