The patch would definitely break many other machines, so no, it can't
be applied as is. Note that there is an equivalent workaround by
adding "model=auto" module option.
The support for Acer Aspire was already improved in mm tree. At
least, we have the support for Aspire 9810 and co. If it's the
compatible one, the chance is high.
Roger, could you try git-alsa patch in the latest mm together with
model=acer-aspiore option? If it works, I can easily add your device
ID to the table.
thanks,
Takashi
