Subject: RE: acpi on r40e

Message-ID: <20040219140412.85807.qmail@web14522.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <BF1FE1855350A0479097B3A0D2A80EE0025A6413-N2PTB0HCzHJF3Yvz3xaN/VDQ4js95KgL@public.gmane.org>

If I boot with acpi=off, the hotkeys work. I can see the keypress by
watch'ing /dev/nvram. But with acpi, the keys dont work and nothing is
registered in /dev/nvram when any of the hotkeys are pressed. Even
closing and opening the lid causes some change in nvram but nothing is
registered when acpi is enabled.

It looks like hotkeys are accessed through CMOS in Thinkpads.

I dont see any CMOS entry in dsdt table
(http://www.flatface.net/~praveen/tp/acpi/dsdt.dsl).

I am not an expert in this; I am just trying to give all the info I
think might be relevant.
