Hello,
I've been poking around the W500 gyrosensor.
* When the device is tilted, it generates PNP0C14 event.
* This is caught by acer_wmi_notify() in drivers/platform/x86/acer-wmi.c
Now it gets interesting ;-)
The obj->buffer.pointer contains the following:
0x05 0x01 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
That means, return_value.function is 0x05, instead of 0x01 (WMID_HOTKEY_EVENT).
I've been poking around for quite a bit, but so far didn't get any further data
from it but this event. Any idea how to progress please? I think I just need to
call some of the methods (see below) that'll return the values from the
gyrosensor.
