This would also solve the "there's no bay > event" case. Hm. The hardware I have here has a separate "eject request" button and "physical eject" button. Hitting the former sends the request to the OS, and the light then pulses until the OS confirms that the dock can be removed. If the user removes the dock before this happens, that's user error. Unfortunately, the hardware in question doesn't contain a bay. The only dock I have with no request button doesn't present as an ACPI dock to begin with. Do Thinkpad docks differ from this? -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
