I take it you mean that you want to stop using toshiba_acpi for the time being? Simply run 'sudo modprobe -r toshiba_acpi' to remove it for your current boot, and 'sudo apt-get remove toshiba-acpi-dkms' to remove it for subsequent boots. > I noticed that there is no try&fail procedure for reenabling hot keys, > and it could be triggered in masses (as I saw in logs).

But in this case even executing that code path is pointless -- your machine doesn't support HCI_SYSTEM_EVENT at all. I think that the INFO method can be used to read hotkeys, so a better solution is to get your machine to use that instead. > WMI interface could be introduced by BIOS update (it was named 1.40 WIN > - whatever it means).

If the WMI interface is going to be commonly supported on Toshibas it may be better to use it than what toshiba_acpi currently uses. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827558 Title: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/827558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
