Guys, Here is an interesting blog from Lenovo talking about the dock design change http://lenovoblogs.com/insidethebox/?p=290
Basically these docks do not have any features like PCI devices/slots, Ultrabay and such. And all the ports on the Dock are visible in the OS regardless if your docked or not, so no new devices are added on dock (other then a USB hub). As such I don't think it is really necessary to fully emulate a dock, all that should be needed are some events for userspace. Here are the various series 3 specs; http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_Port_Replicator_Series_3 http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_Mini_Dock_Series_3 http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_Mini_Dock_Plus_Series_3 http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkPad_Mini_Dock_Plus_Series_3_for_Mobile_Workstations ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ ibm-acpi-devel mailing list ibm-acpi-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ibm-acpi-devel
