According to thinkpad-acpi logs you posted in another thread, your thinkpad doesn't have a known way to issue CMOS commands, so ibm/cmos doesn't get installed. Can you send me a full firmware dump by private email? Using a _very_ recent version of acpi tools and dmidecode (such as those in latest stable Debian Ubuntu or Fedora), could you send me the output of dmidecode (feel free to remove serial numbers and UUIDs) and "acpidump -a" ? > > echo 0x30 0x01 > /proc/acpi/ibm/ecdump (set volume to 1, mute off) > > echo 0x30 0x07 > /proc/acpi/ibm/ecdump (set volume to 7, mute off) > > echo 0x30 0x45 > /proc/acpi/ibm/ecdump (set volume to 5, mute ON) > > ... > > etc? > > > > Does it work?

I don't understand why it stopped working after 2.6.21, however :( -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
