FYI: The ThinkPad SL500 has IdeaPad firmware/ACPI/EC

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The ThinkPad SL500 has the same firmware as the IdeaPad, and therefore it
has absolutely no "special" support from Linux ThinkPad drivers.  You don't
get thinkpad-acpi.  You don't get HDAPS.  You don't get tp-smapi.

The Linux drivers will detect that there is no ThinkPad ACPI or ThinkPad EC
support in any Thinkpad SL-series with IdeaPad firmware, and will refuse to
load.  This is not a bug.

It is unknown at this time if the above applies to all ThinkPad SL models.
