I am contributing information that I believe will help in improving support of my new laptop under linux. This is model 8918-5QG (part no. NF55QMH). Santa Rosa, 1.8MHz CPU, high-res screen with NVidia Quadro GPU, manufactured 27 june 2007, bought in the Netherlands. I never booted the vista HD - I had a 160GB disk from another laptop, which I susbtituted before the machine was powered. I have no use for windows. First, the output that I receive when I load the thinkpad_acpi module with parameters experimental=1 debug=1: --8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<-- thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle \_SB.PCI0.LPC.EC for ec thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for driver thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad ACPI Extras v0.15 thinkpad_acpi: http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/ thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad BIOS 7KET57WW (1.07 ), EC 7KHT20WW-1.04 thinkpad_acpi: Lenovo ThinkPad R61 thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: driver installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for hotkey thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle HKEY for hkey thinkpad_acpi: radio switch found; radios are enabled thinkpad_acpi: hotkey_init: using Lenovo default hot key map thinkpad_acpi: hotkey_init: enabling hot key handling thinkpad_acpi: register_tpacpi_subdriver: registering hotkey as an ACPI driver thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: hotkey installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for bluetooth thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle HKEY for hkey thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: bluetooth installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for wan thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle HKEY for hkey thinkpad_acpi: wan_init: wan hardware not installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for video thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle \_SB.PCI0.VID for vid thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: video installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for light thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle \UCMS for cmos thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: light installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for bay thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for cmos thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle \UCMS for cmos thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: cmos installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for led thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle LED for led thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: led installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for beep thinkpad_acpi: drv_acpi_handle_init: Found ACPI handle BEEP for beep thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: beep installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for thermal thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: thermal installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for ecdump thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: ecdump installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for brightness thinkpad_acpi: brightness_init: selected brightness_mode=2 thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: brightness installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for volume thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: volume installed thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: probing for fan thinkpad_acpi: fan_init: fan control features disabled by parameter thinkpad_acpi: ibm_init: fan installed input: ThinkPad Extra Buttons as /class/input/input8 --8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<-- Then the functions of entries under /proc/acpi/ibm, in alphabetical order. beep: works (a few numbers generate no beep) bluetooth: both enable and disable work brightness: sending up and down does change from 0 to 7 the value that is printed when the file is printed. BUT BRIGHTNESS LEVEL DOES NOT CHANGE! Nothing also happens when trying with Fn-Home and Fn-End. cmos: apparently works as in README file. Sending 5 and 6 changes brightness level in 'brightness' file, but not the actual backlight intensity. driver: returns driver: ThinkPad ACPI Extras version: 0.15 ecdump: apparently works. Here are two outputs at roughly 1-minute distance, in case this may be of use: lun ago 27 15:38:33 mirtillo:/proc/acpi/ibm# cat ecdump EC +00 +01 +02 +03 +04 +05 +06 +07 +08 +09 +0a +0b +0c +0d +0e +0f EC 0x00: *a6 *05 *a0 00 *fe *96 00 00 *1f 00 *47 00 00 00 *80 00 EC 0x10: 00 00 *ff *ff *f4 *3c *87 *09 *4b *ff *83 00 *ff *ff *2d 00 EC 0x20: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 *01 *03 00 00 *80 EC 0x30: *07 00 *12 00 *30 *04 00 00 *85 00 *30 *10 00 *50 00 00 EC 0x40: 00 00 00 00 00 00 *14 00 *53 *01 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0x50: 00 *c0 *02 *19 *d7 *07 *08 *1b *0b *27 *0a *59 00 00 00 00 EC 0x60: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0x70: 00 00 00 00 00 *12 *30 *80 *31 *28 *1f *36 *32 *80 *1f *80 EC 0x80: 00 00 00 *06 *91 *0c *07 *01 00 00 00 00 00 00 *6c 00 EC 0x90: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0xa0: *3f *14 *3f *14 *ff *ff *64 00 00 00 *de *30 *ff *ff *e0 00 EC 0xb0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0xc0: *23 *2a *2b *80 *80 *80 *80 *80 *11 *5a 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0xd0: 06 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0xe0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 40 50 05 24 6e 55 03 EC 0xf0: 37 4b 48 54 32 30 57 57 0e 94 56 a0 0e 6c 47 80 lun ago 27 15:39:38 mirtillo:/proc/acpi/ibm# cat ecdump EC +00 +01 +02 +03 +04 +05 +06 +07 +08 +09 +0a +0b +0c +0d +0e +0f EC 0x00: a6 05 a0 00 fe 96 00 00 1f 00 47 00 00 00 80 00 EC 0x10: 00 00 ff ff f4 3c 87 09 4b ff 83 00 ff ff 2d 00 EC 0x20: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 *d6 00 00 00 01 03 00 00 80 EC 0x30: 07 00 12 00 30 04 00 00 85 00 30 10 00 50 00 00 EC 0x40: 00 00 00 00 00 00 14 00 53 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0x50: 00 c0 02 19 d7 07 08 1b 0b 27 0a 59 00 00 00 00 EC 0x60: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0x70: 00 00 00 00 00 12 30 80 31 28 1f *35 32 80 1f 80 EC 0x80: 00 00 00 06 *92 0c 07 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 6c 00 EC 0x90: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0xa0: 3f 14 3f 14 ff ff 64 00 00 00 de 30 ff ff e0 00 EC 0xb0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0xc0: 23 *2b 2b 80 80 80 80 80 11 5a 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0xd0: 06 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 EC 0xe0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 40 50 05 24 6e 55 03 EC 0xf0: 37 4b 48 54 32 30 57 57 0e 94 56 a0 0e 6c 47 80 hotkey: as default, after loading the module: I have a mask of: 0x008dffff, which is strange since the README says the maximum mask is 0x0000ffff. A reset gives a mask of 0x00080c. I see very little action on /var/log/acpid. But I am not familiar with acpid configuration. led: works, but no led apparently corresponds to 3,4,5,6. light: works (little thinklight) thermal: here is a sample output: temperatures: 49 40 31 53 50 -128 31 -128 34 42 43 -128 -128 -128 -128 -128 video: Here is the output: status: supported lcd: enabled crt: disabled dvi: disabled auto: enabled commands: lcd_enable, lcd_disable commands: crt_enable, crt_disable commands: dvi_enable, dvi_disable commands: auto_enable, auto_disable commands: video_switch, expand_toggle I still did not have any occasion to test CRT output, so I cannot confirm that it works. volume: mute, up and down appear to work, but while the mute effect is OK (sending mute silences audio output, sending either up or down un-silences it), the actual value (from 0 to 15) does not seem to influence any volume. I add that the three volume keys above the keyboard also work well with mute function, but do not influence audio volume AND ALSO do not change the value that I can read from the 'volume' file in acpi/ibm. I am attaching the dsdt file. I will try to provide as much info as I can, upon request. I am not subscribed to the list...
