Arca Noae is pleased to announce the immediate availability of our ACPI Driver Package for OS/2 and eComStation version 3.23.06.
This release contains the following changes:
- Updated to ACPICA 20170629. See https://acpica.org/ for details.
- Fixed a problem handling interrupts > 47
- Implemented limited message interrupt support.
- Prevent the use of interrupts > 31 on kernels which don’t support them.
- Enhanced kernel detection due to problems with older kernels.
NOTE: This version will limit the number of interrupts to 32 for older kernels to avoid known problems which cause kernel traps. Most people will not be affected by this change. Please see the ACPI Requirements wiki for more details about this issue.
More information about the ACPI Driver Package may be found in the ACPI Driver wiki.
