I have released version 0.24-20100516220 of thinkpad-acpi through the sourceforge.net release system. Patches are available for 2.6.32, 2.6.33 and 2.6.34, at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ibm-acpi/files/thinkpad-acpi/0.24-20100220/ Support for 2.6.28 to 2.6.31 has been discontinued. 2.6.27 might still get *minor* updates, but only if someone asks me directly for it and it is something easy to backport. git users can get it directly from tags or the release/* branches at: git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/linux-acpi-2.6/ibm-acpi-2.6.git This release should make the driver work reasonably well on the X100e, and at least load on every new Lenovo ThinkPad. How well it will work on a brand new model is uncertain. Please submit reports of any bugs you find. The code in this release is already upstream for the upcoming 2.6.35. Release notes: This is a mainly bug fix release, but it has some highlights: (also on thinkpad-acpi 0.24 20100411) 1. The driver now can find the EC node on every ACPI ThinkPad (it will load on the new ThinkPad X100e, for example) 2. Updated HKEY event documentation (including the _alarms_) 3. Reduced the memory footprint of the driver after it is loaded (new on thinkpad-acpi 0.24 20100516) 4. Protect old IBM codepaths from running on Lenovo ThinkPads (needed on the X100e, and maybe others) 5. Fix video handling on the X100e (now backlight and video output control have a non-zero chance of working) ChangeLog: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh: thinkpad-acpi: constrain IBM-era support to IBM boxes thinkpad-acpi: X100e quick fixes thinkpad-acpi: fix volume/mute hotkey poll handling thinkpad-acpi: move greeting messages out of the first subdriver (v2) thinkpad-acpi: let other subdrivers know backlight level range thinkpad-acpi: fix brightness hotkey poll handling thinkpad-acpi: update HKEY and hotkey subdriver documentation (v2) thinkpad-acpi: disclose usertask for ALSA callbacks thinkpad-acpi: detect EC node using its HID (v2) thinkpad-acpi: acpi_evalf fixes thinkpad-acpi: explain errors from acpi_install_notify_handler thinkpad-acpi: don't depend on led_path for led firmware type (v2) thinkpad-acpi: clean up ACPI handles handling thinkpad-acpi: document backlight level writeback at driver init -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
