If you have time, please see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1366421 It has pretty much all the details on what and why we need something in sysfs. For HP and ThinkPad, there already are interfaces available. /sys/devices/platform/hp-wmi/tablet /sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/hotkey_tablet_mode It'd be nice to see the same for Yoga IdeaPad; a proper interface for tablet- mode. - -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf | http://people.debian.org/~rrs Debian - The Universal Operating System -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEQCVDstmIVAB/Yn02pjpYo/LhdWkFAliSChYACgkQpjpYo/Lh dWm/LhAAitvcaPzR2fUR6gtlxMLOQDTEPA8rjQdVmIBFLYPV9OTyJPkjz9V0aZlR S4BcGa43foXLNsj5tGFNoy8gucwQ2bpEEpPJazlsmRVk9SB7Ui0GVzU673EUqCHD wR3NI4MzlEmo6RV8DxTyx6rGOjGH2XGjwi6cbfZFLiehw7RjYZV5ggO5uxK+O43n EbudMaiHOZeg+rYtU+c162TdAjPwwWTiTx5LJvZpam7QS3M31U76PdVt75bacbfH m7TarxK15ksP9Mmj3DJnXKavOS5u92mPRkSIZmE/hmWsJ/X6tmTzgX0tHddF4N+7 yaftBwglqV6Da8Xylc9GKkC2Q/b0mXSQqTwr86fK2TyKY6HHj5QJ6CNG9gwP33tG Kg2zIpMzKul7FHpJeQIrHL312Z/4bek1Islki2ydt8CwdheMPTnxUqcFNKpaTItM FudQTJuaffXinmavGtwco/iFBqJbnqX3RkgWpXxyIvG4NTLrcMcMDKY6DRo+f2FB 0ojU2APhPZ+63+fvCwO1Bv06/vbzfphkOvgQv6w2laekmuCJaF2RfQDj8N+DiteH LRmqYpF4UEr4WnJeHuumV3oRQsjHU6exdzg/5oBNyJ1vD8CzRFYvTgyNmdunmFnp ybuVmjVIjFKxGnF1x46ZFF+o7CM0+3XeC6vFYbT3WNDQq1iQKTY= =/CI9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
