Event 0x3006 is used to help power management of the ODD in the
UltraBay. The EC generates this event when the ODD eject button is
pressed (even if the bay is powered down).
Normally, Linux doesn't need this as we keep the SATA link powered
up (which wastes power). The EC powers up the bay by it

This is the current queue of thinkpad-acpi changes for the merge window.
They are all fixes or "stop asking users for information we already have"
patches, and should also go to 2.6.32 and 2.6.33.
Please merge in acpi-test.
Thanks!

argument to SBDC and SWAN is not "set radio to last state on resume".
Rather, it seems to be "if this bit is set, enable radio on resume,
otherwise disable it on resume".
So, the proper way to prepare the radios for S3 suspend is:
Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo reports this:
Brightness notification does not work until the user writes to
hotkey_mask attribute. That's because the polling thread will only run
if hotkey_user_mask is set and someone is reading the input device or
if hotkey_driver_mask is set. In this second cas
Given the right combination of ThinkPad and X.org, just reading the
video output control state is enough to hard-crash X.org.
Until the day I somehow find out a model or BIOS cut date to not
provide this feature to ThinkPads that can do video switching through
