I'm not responsible for this module development, but I notice in your message a string, saying
> no auto mute when headphones are plugged in
The solution to this problem is in proper configuration of your alsa-driver, and thinkpad_acpi is not responsible for muting the general sound, when you're inserting your headphones. So just google for a right config for your intle snd_hda. Hope this advice will help you.

Hello,
I own a ThinkPad SL510 for 9 months now. Machine has several problems,
most important completely broken suspend, but it's not bad otherwise. I
owned worse.
Now when I bought it thinkpad_acpi was not loading, having some hybrid
IdeaPad firmware it reported "not yet supported ThinkPad detected".
Neither hdaps or tp_smapi were loading as wel...
Anyway I found the lenovo-sl-laptop project, but it has no support for
SL510, only SL500, and author never replied to any of my e-mail. Then I
found asus-laptop has some support for the SL and I made a feature
request here: http://dev.iksaif.net/issues/27
They were kind to inspect my DSDT and said there's no way to add
support.
So without any drivers the state is: no fan control, quirky backlight
but usable (brightness resets on each boot or X restart), no auto mute
when headphones are plugged in (I mention it because I saw this driver
has some audio control) and finally, most extra buttons do not work.
Working buttons: vol up, vol dn, mute, fn+f4 suspend, brightness up,
brightness dn.
Not working buttons: hibernate, screen zoom, screen lock, microphone
wifi bluetooth touchpad toggles, battery status and the ThinkVantage
button.
Yesterday by chance I read a claim on some forum "thinkpad_acpi has
experimental SL support". I thought it rubbish, but the driver loaded to
my surprise. I run Linux 2.6.36.2 and the output was:
thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad ACPI Extras v0.24
thinkpad_acpi: http://ibm-acpi.sf.net/
thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad BIOS 6JET77WW (1.35 ), EC 6JHT59WW-1.179000
thinkpad_acpi: Lenovo ThinkPad SL510, model 28476LG
thinkpad_acpi: detected a 8-level brightness capable ThinkPad
thinkpad_acpi: radio switch found; radios are enabled
thinkpad_acpi: possible tablet mode switch found; ThinkPad in laptop mode
thinkpad_acpi: asked for hotkey mask 0x078dffff, but firmware forced it to 0x008dffff
thinkpad_acpi: rfkill switch tpacpi_bluetooth_sw: radio is unblocked
Registered led device: tpacpi::thinklight
Registered led device: tpacpi::power
Registered led device: tpacpi::standby
Registered led device: tpacpi::thinkvantage
thinkpad_acpi: Standard ACPI backlight interface available, not loading native one.
thinkpad_acpi: Console audio control enabled, mode: monitor (read only)
input: ThinkPad Extra Buttons as /devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/input/input9
I keep upgrading the BIOS in hope they will fix the damn suspend. So
since the above I upgraded from 1.35 to 1.41 BIOS which is latest, also
before I dump DSDT and DMI for this request. They are attached to the
message.
Modprobing thinkpad_acpi made all (or nearly all) extra keys working.
This alone is enough for me wanting to use thinkpad_acpi. I'm sold. But
it also had side effects, i.e. the Mute button stopped muting the volume
and its LED would not light on. I'd love to see the support improving a
little. And thank you for making it possible to work at all!
