Toshiba ACPI / Bluetooth

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

the builtin Toshiba Bluetooth adapter is in disabled state by default. It 
works perfectly well if enabled.

There are two families of Toshiba notebooks, the ones made by Compal 
(PhoenixBIOS), and the original Toshiba manufactured.

The Compal-OEMs are supported by the Omnibook kernel module (along with 
some others laptops by HP, ...): http://omnibook.sourceforge.net/doku.php

The Toshiba made notebooks need toshiba_acpi. toshiba_acpi is included in 
the kernel but is outdated and does not work on newer models. The newer one 
works an can be downloaded: 
http://memebeam.org/toys/ExperimentalToshibaAcpiDriver

Documentation from Toshiba is available from 
http://linux.toshiba-dme.co.jp/linux/eng/develop.htm

Both drivers are maintained outside the kernel.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10173

Any chance they might be included ?

As my last code is several years old, I would not be of great help. But I 
could assist in docs or testing. Our company does buy Toshiba laptops, so I 
have access to various models for testing.
