hi. i was not able to apply the patch (thinkpad-acpi-0.24-20100516_v2.6.34.patch) to the 2.6.32 kernel with the gentoo-patches without getting errors - i think it is not meant to be applied on 2.6.32 as the filename suggests :) nevertheless.. patching 2.6.34 vanilla kernel succeeded, but the module fails to load, the same happens when patching the 2.6.34 gentoo-patched kernel. i tried the linux-2.6.34 without your patch and it loads without force_load. here is what works: fn-combinations trigger acpi-events as in the prior version, including the THERMAL-ALERT-0x6000-thing on pressing Fn-Scroll echo enable/disable > bluetooth seems to work /proc/acpi/ibm/volume is gone /proc/acpi/ibm/beep works with some values (i think 1,9,10,15 ) /proc/acpi/ibm/driver gives driver: ThinkPad ACPI Extras version: 0.24 /proc/acpi/ibm/fan level 0-7, full-speed, auto and disengaged seem to have influence on the fans speed /proc/acpi/ibm/led 0, 7, 12 are accepted, 0 seems to be the led under the power-button, 7 is the led indicating standby, i dont can figure out what 12 is changing. /proc/acpi/ibm/light works /proc/acpi/ibm/video: same as with the prior version /proc/acpi/ibm/wan: same... The same kernel with the current patch from the website doesnt load the module (no such device, even with force_load=1 ) Is there something else that you want to know?
