Hi, I'm looking for testers for a mostly rewritten and enhanced version of the acpi_ibm (ACPI Thinkpad Extras) driver. You can find it along with a first draft of the new manpage at: http://people.freebsd.org/~markus/ibm/ If you are running -CURRENT, simply replace the former driver with the new one in sys/dev/acpi_support and rebuild it. (sorry, no patch for 5.x for now). Please mail me on failure and success and include the output of # sysctl hw.acpi.ibm In any case: Please send me your DSDT for further improvement of the driver (even if you run FreeBSD 5): # acpidump -t -d > name-system.asl Changes: - Relocation of the sysctl tree to hw.acpi.ibm and renaming of some sysctls - Support for more hotkeys by the hotkey sysctl (see manpage) - Improved support of ACPI events, disabled by default. You can enable it by setting the events sysctl to 1 (on my T41p there are now 24 different keypress events that get reported) - write support for: volume, mute, brightness and thinklight - led(4) interface for the thinklight (thanks simon) - support for reading the fan status and speed - support for reading up to 8 thermal sensors Thanks in advance, Markus -- Markus Brueffer | GPG-Key: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~markus/markus.asc [email protected] | FP: 3F9B EBE8 F290 E5CC 1447 8760 D48D 1072 78F8 A8D4 [email protected] | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve!
