The omnibook-module for compal-systems was maintained outside the kernel and stalled for some time now. The toshiba_acpi included in the kernel is outdated (there is a newer release, that fixes some bugs). Toshiba_acpi does only work on 32 bit systems, it breaks on 64 bit systems. If anyone is interested in some hacking I can provide shell-access to both types of machines. For some Tecra machines, Toshiba has provided some Vista-compatible BIOSes, they seem to enhance acpi-stuff for Linux too. So you might look for a bios-update. cu romal www.romal.de blog.romal.de Rafał Miłecki schrieb: > 2008/7/15, Renato S.
