I think I need to rephrase a bit. How is the driver distinguishing which mapping to apply depending on which model it is running on? Why I am asking: I'm since 26 years involved in technical support of Toshiba notebooks, a happy Linux-user also trying to help other Toshiba owners using Linux on Toshiba's. In that scope I can see that some features (Hotkeys), probably provided by the toshiba_acpi-driver, does not work on every platform. More in detail - mappings are not always correct. It lies more in my personal interest than my profession to see this improved.

I have no problem, tho' I'm not sure if the mailing list is the right place for this. Darren, any input here? As per your ideas/suggestions, it will depend if it is feasible/possible. I any case, just send me your ideas/suggestions, and we can try to work something out (again, if feasible/possible). > > BR Tom > Cheers Azael -- -- El mundo apesta y vosotros apestais tambien --
