Description Raphael Groner 2010-12-09 22:44:12 CET

Support for /proc/acpi would propably depend on CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS kernel option in the future.

Please implement (additional) source to get values preferred from 
/sys/module/acpi/parameters/acpica_version instead of /proc/acpi/info
/sys/class/thermal instead of /proc/acpi/thermal_zone
