Hi, Now that a patch bas been added to the 3.0 kernel to handle the hotplug events for the newer Docks, how do I act upon those? In the past with the ACPI docks, I would write a udev rule that looked for a docked event and run a script, but now I don't get any udev dock event, and the acpi dock.0 sysfs entry remains at 0. Here is what I get; Syslog thinkpad_acpi: undocked from hotplug port replicator thinkpad_acpi: docked into hotplug port replicator $ udevadm monitor monitor will print the received events for: UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing KERNEL - the kernel uevent KERNEL[1312457755.972643] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5/1-1.5:1.0 (usb) KERNEL[1312457755.972752] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5 (usb) UDEV [1312457755.973813] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5/1-1.5:1.0 (usb) UDEV [1312457755.975058] remove /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5 (usb) KERNEL[1312457756.477813] change /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/PNP0C09:00/ACPI0003:00/power_supply/AC (power_supply) UDEV [1312457756.490313] change /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/PNP0C09:00/ACPI0003:00/power_supply/AC (power_supply) KERNEL[1312457756.691886] change /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/PNP0C09:00/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT0 (power_supply) UDEV [1312457756.693001] change /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/PNP0C09:00/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT0 (power_supply) KERNEL[1312457761.610276] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5 (usb) KERNEL[1312457761.610498] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5/1-1.5:1.0 (usb) UDEV [1312457761.615358] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5 (usb) UDEV [1312457761.616916] add /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.5/1-1.5:1.0 (usb) KERNEL[1312457761.619800] change /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/PNP0C09:00/ACPI0003:00/power_supply/AC (power_supply) UDEV [1312457761.664903] change /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/PNP0C09:00/ACPI0003:00/power_supply/AC (power_supply) KERNEL[1312457761.850873] change /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/PNP0C09:00/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT0 (power_supply) UDEV [1312457761.852186] change /devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0A08:00/device:0a/PNP0C09:00/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT0 (power_supply) I also searched through sysfs and proc, but could not find anything that confirms that the ThinkPad is in fact docked. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers.
