I guess I'll put in an "official" response. From: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [ltp] [RFC] thinkpad-acpi: dock and bay drivers: any users left?

I have a T60p and an Ultrabay HDD adapter which is hotswap-capable and I am running Fedora 11 (a 2.6.29 kernel). What doesn't work is that the pre-eject switch (the thing that pops out the physical eject tab) doesn't seem to be hooked into ACPI. There are udev events generated by the switch, but nothing in F11 appears to be hooked to them.

I'm willing to try out various things to get this pre-eject to work perfectly. I do have a 90% solution, which involves a udev action and script modelled on the hotswap script in the ThinkPad Wiki, but I was hoping that there would be a better way. Peter F.
