Jemm386 v5.8 - alternate reset port and reset value (Developers)

posted by Laaca , Czech republic, 06.02.2021, 00:38

After some effort I was able to write the ACPI poweroff routine. I really need it because the "fdapm /poweroff" command does not work on my notebook.
But - the routine works nicely on my Pentium-4 machine in opposite of the notebook.
I investigated where the problem on my notebook is and I found that some ACPI tables are bigger than 65535 bytes - what is a problem for realmode applications. And the important DSDT table where is located object S5 (which contains poweroff info) has size 196238 bytes on my machine.
Of course, after some effort I will get it to work but this is a problem for FDAPM. I thought that I will be able to write a patch for the poweroff function but it would need a deeper changes in the FDAPM source.
