In fact, blacklist it to make sure something doesn't decide to load it behind your back later :-) > What's not working (and what I miss most), is the brightness buttons. Ah, yes. Video *can* help you with that. Try it. It is not thinkpad-acpi that is messing with it, and be warned that thinkpad-acpi brightness support does not work well with machines with 16 levels of brightness yet. > So far the command "xbacklight -set ##" seems to be the best > substitute, but I would really like to get those buttons working. Try the video module. It responds to the ACPI handles, and might get things to work. Try it *without* thinkpad-acpi loaded first, so as to be sure nothing in userspace will screw it up by trying to also react to the buttons and tell thinkpad-acpi to mess with the brightness (which, as I said, won't work well for the X61s yet). > All other buttons (suspend, wireless, hibernate) work fine when I use > acpi-support en acpid. Check the volume ones too. I think someone reported some sort of weirdness with those. > I loaded the thinkpad_acpi module with: experimental=1 > hotkey=enable,0xffff fan_control=1 You have more event-driven hot keys than that in your thinkpad. Use "cat /sys/bus/platform/devices/thinkpad_acpi/hotkey_recommended_mask" to know the best mask to use (latest ibm-acpi.sf.net patches). -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
