I have released version 0.23-20091227 of thinkpad-acpi through the sourceforge.net release system. Patches are available for 2.6.27 to 2.6.32, at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ibm-acpi/files/thinkpad-acpi/0.23-20091227/ (support for 2.6.28, 2.6.29 and 2.6.30 will be discontinued soon). git users can get it directly from tags in: git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/linux-acpi-2.6/ibm-acpi-2.6.git This release has some bug fixes, and something very important: ALSA support. The ALSA interface will be the main volume monitor and control interface for the driver from now on. Note that by default the ALSA interface is read-only (you're supposed to mess with the mixer using the hotkeys, not software). It can be made read-write though a kernel paramenter, much like fan-control works. Please test, and report. I don't know how well it works on the newer ThinkPads that have switched to mute-only control in firmware. ChangeLog (0.23-20091227): Henrique de Moraes Holschuh (5): thinkpad-acpi: don't take the first ALSA slot by default thinkpad-acpi: don't fail to load the entire module due to ALSA problems thinkpad-acpi: make volume subdriver optional thinkpad-acpi: update volume documentation thinkpad-acpi: improve Kconfig help text -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them. In the Land of Redmond where the shadows lie." -- The Silicon Valley Tarot Henrique Holschuh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ ibm-acpi-devel mailing list ibm-acpi-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ibm-acpi-devel
