Write does not know what is the ebook switch state, that logic is in the
osk.

Looking in the wiki and sugar code, I could not find information about how
read the switch,
but in ticket http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/12326 found this:

If you do:

evtest --query /dev/input/event4 EV_SW SW_TABLET_MODE; echo $?


If the xo is in ebook mode returns 10, if not, returns 0.

There are any official doc about the switches I am missing? There are a way
to catch a event when the switch is activated, using dbus or something
similar?
