Thanks a lot Renato, I installed it, and the module is loaded (modprobe)
fine, no error message. But I have only two files in /proc/omnibook

#ls /proc/omnibook/
dmi  version

#cat /proc/omnibook/dmi
BIOS Vendor:   Phoenix Technologies LTD
BIOS Version:  2.00
BIOS Release:  08/30/2006
System Vendor: TOSHIBA
Product Name:  Satellite A100
Version:       PSAA8E-0XY04SSP
Serial Number: X6334298Q
Board Vendor:  Intel Corporation
Board Name:    Not Applicable

I guess my laptop is not supported, right?

I will try to contact the module developer, anyhow, if somebody has any
other suggestion I would appreciate it.
