I tested it the following way: - 2.6.29 - all patches from Mattia send for rc1 and rc2 - the module from your email - boot and start x as ususal - *after* starting X I loaded the module Output: [ 2120.435908] nvidia-control: hardware status gave 0x801f and it seems that the Stamina LED did light up (I don't remeber whether it was on before). Anything else I can test?
