Hi,

I'm currently in the process of writing a patch for my Acer Nitro 5
AN515-58 laptop to support Turbo Mode. The OC WMI calls have different
input values on the nitro, and I've managed to reverse engineer the
nitro sense app to obtain them. However, im facing a small difficulty
-

Currently, the driver listens for WMI events to call the
toggle_turbo() function, the problem is that on my laptop the Turbo
Key does not seem to produce a WMI event (as observed by acpi_listen).
It does however show up on the output of wev with the keycode 433 and
symbol XF86Presentation.

I'm not sure how to proceed right now since I'm not that familiar with
the input or wmi subsystem. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Hridesh MG

Theoretically you can use a i8042 filter to filter out those special
keyboard events. However i suspect that Acer will not omit such an WMI
event without a good reason. Can you share the output of "acpidump"?
Thanks, Armin Wolf
