thinkpad-acpi fails to load with newer Thinkpad X201s BIOS
The new BIOS has a slightly different EC version string. From a1541710300b083a1a9acff2890d721d15ede62b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Keith Packard <keithp@keithp.com> Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2011 23:46:22 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] thinkpad-acpi: Some BIOS versions don't end in WW, remove check My X201s BIOS version string is 6QET46V1 (1.16 ). The EC version string is 6QHT28WW-1.09. The driver was requiring that both of these have 'WW' in positions 6 and 7. I don't know what the significance of having 'V1' there instead is, but removing the test makes the driver load on my machine.
