Hello. I now writing device driver for fujitsu siemens notebook hotkeys FUJ02E3, and think, that before understanding how this device works a must write driver, that provide all acpi methods to sysctl and all event to log. I'v done it, but can't understand how this device is working =) I think that it must be musch easy if i already has some ways to call acpi methods and intercept events from userspace by commandline. Now i write driver, that gains, device and methods to provide in sysctl, from kenv, but in some devices this tunablie is too long. Please, explain, how can i access real acpi code from kernel and how can i found devices and methods to provide it ? Also, redirect to good documentation is what i want =) Also, i think to use /dev/acpi as a commandline interface, now there only sysctl acces, i want add some command language to it something like call _SB_.PCI0.LPCB.FEXT.SIRB(1) 0x0 alias _SB_.PCI0.LPCB.FJEX FJEX ok call FJEX.GHKS() 0x0 is this good ? or we must use some other mechanism ? But now i have not enough experience for this =) but i'll try it =) -- Ivan B. Serezhkin Spamooborona, Yandex. http://so.yandex.ru/
