Package: acpi-support Version: 0.86-1 Severity: wishlist Hello there. I see acpi-support does what I have previously had to do manually in the past, thank you :)
However, one thing that I used to do manually for acpid was manage dock/undock events sent by my thinkpad x40 when I use my ultrabase. These events used to be generated by the ibm_acpi module. I understand that having ibm_acpi manage the hotplugging is deprecated now. It's not clear to me how I can use my ultrabase with the new scheme, but I imagine the "un/dock me please" events are still carried over ACPI, which means events would still go in this package. Do you happen to know how these events are managed under the new scheme? Either way, is this the correct place to file a wishlist bug and patches? :) -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages acpi-support depends on: ii acpid 1.0.4-5 Utilities for using ACPI power man ii dmidecode 2.8-2 Dump Desktop Management Interface ii finger 0.17-10 user information lookup program ii hdparm 6.6-1 tune hard disk parameters for high ii laptop-detect 0.12.1 attempt to detect a laptop ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.1-10 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii powermgmt-base 1.24 Common utils and configs for power ii radeontool 1.5-3 utility to control ATI Radeon back ii toshset 1.71-1.1 Access much of the Toshiba laptop ii vbetool 0.7-1+b1 run real-mode video BIOS code to a ii xbase-clients 1:7.1.ds-3 miscellaneous X clients Versions of packages acpi-support recommends: ii laptop-mode-tools 1.31-1 Scripts to spin down hard drive an -- no debconf information
