[tlinux-users:07670] Re: ACPI on Satellite L20-121, desperate...

Hello Piotr,

Sorry I can't really help with the ACPI issues you are having, but I can
suggest fnfx[1] for the FN+FX keys.  Also it is a toshiba_acpi module
that allows access for some of the Toshiba-specific stuff.  It works on
my Satellite 1401 -- shutdown, TV-out, screen brightness, FN keys.

Hope it helps!
