That immediately tells the firmware to process hot keys at it would see fit. You could call it "enter DOS mode for hot keys" if you want. In that mode, it can and will do some stuff by itself, and Fn+F4 may generate a sleep button event, for example. The firmware can also report the hot key anyway, in which case ibm-acpi/thinkpad-acpi lets it through. I can probably filter off some, but it would be unsafe to filter out the whole lot. > That caused the Fn+F4 key to become active, except that it wanted > to do Hibernation to Disk instead: a window popped up to tell me > (IIRC) that my kernel command line didn't have a good resume= Something in your user space reacted to the ACPI event the firmware generates by default for FN+F4, and tried to do sleep-to-disk. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
