I'm on BIOS A06, but I wouldn't /expect/ any of the stable (A**) BIOS releases to change any behaviors like this. What card the machine shipped with won't have a bearing on the behaviors with the current card. There aren't any factory processes that change the BIOS based on the card, just processes that would add newer firmware directly to cards that support it. --=20 Mario Limonciello *Dell | Linux Engineering* mario_limonciello@dell.com --------------enigBF60709AA77D5EA782B4CB80 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkqf+sUACgkQ2CrZjkA73YvjJQCdED77s0DvZOpCUsa5lPx81MIT agMAn15qJS0RMQFDn8ByZ6CvTfUny5SU =llt0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigBF60709AA77D5EA782B4CB80-- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
