(something like /proc/acpi/ibm/brightness and /proc/acpi/ibm/volume ) Method to soft eject/insert the device in UltraBay, and capture the event generated by the pull-off device-from-bay button. As for the tapping on Trackpoint, I think it can be programed with the synaptic driver which can do more than that. See: http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340/touchpad/ And the motion sensor I don't think is an acpi device.
