Package: acpi-support Version: 0.95-2 Severity: wishlist Hi,
I was wondering what the hotkey parameter of the ibm_acpi module means. I neither found a documentation in the kernel sources, nor on ThinkWiki.org. According to gentoo-wiki.com, the 12 least significant bits are directly mapped to the Fn+F* combinations. And this works for my ThinkPad. Playing around with the four remaining bits, I was able to find the corresponding key combinations. I suggest to add this information in form of a short public summary to /etc/modprobe.d/ibm_acpi.modprobe, to let the file looks like this: --- cut here--- # The ibm_acpi module can be configured to generate ACPI events for certain hotkey (Fn+*) presses. # This often happens in addition to the usual function, e.g. bluetooth hotkey (Fn+F5) off means: # no acpi event, but bluetooth still switches on and off. # bits -- hotkey: function # 0x0001 -- Fn+F1 : - # 0x0002 -- Fn+F2 : lock screen # 0x0004 -- Fn+F3 : blank screen # 0x0008 -- Fn+F4 : suspend to ram # 0x0010 -- Fn+F5 : switch bluetooth # 0x0020 -- Fn+F6 : - # 0x0040 -- Fn+F7 : switch display # 0x0080 -- Fn+F8 : toggle display expansion # 0x0100 -- Fn+F9 : eject from dock # 0x0200 -- Fn+F10: - # 0x0400 -- Fn+F11: - # 0x0800 -- Fn+F12: hibernate # 0x1000 -- Fn+Backspace # 0x2000 -- Fn+Ins # 0x4000 -- Fn+Del # 0x8000 -- Fn+Pos1 / Fn+Home: brightness up # examples: # 0xffff -- enable all possible hot keys # 0xffef -- enable all except Fn+F5 # 0xff9f -- enable all except Fn+F6 and Fn+F7 (default) # 0x080c -- enable only Fn+F3, Fn+F4 and Fn+F12 # 0x0000 -- disable all possible hot keys options ibm_acpi hotkey=enable,0xff9f experimental=1 --- cut here --- Bye, Toby -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
