Less so, but yes. As far as I know, sbs-battery drives a superset of hardware, but bq20z75 does drive a useful subset (though one that doesn't include the hardware I actually have). Having bq20z75 in the wheezy 3.2 kernel wouldn't serve the particular purpose I had in mind for it, but it seems potentially useful. - Josh Triplett -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
