I see kernel 2.6.28-7 #20 now has toshiba_acpi module, but it also can't
be loaded.
purl...@purluno-laptop:~$ modprobe toshiba_acpi
FATAL: Error inserting toshiba_acpi
(/lib/modules/2.6.28-7-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/toshiba_acpi.ko): Operation
not permitted
purl...@purluno-laptop:~$
I have downloaded Jaunty kernel git repository, and checked toshiba_acpi_init().
if (acpi_disabled)
return -ENODEV;
/* simple device detection: look for HCI method */
if (is_valid_acpi_path(METHOD_HCI_1))
method_hci = METHOD_HCI_1;
else if (is_valid_acpi_path(METHOD_HCI_2))
method_hci = METHOD_HCI_2;
else
return -ENODEV;
I can't see any kernel message of toshiba_acpi module in /var/log, so
code above determines to prohibit loading of the module.
I can access to /proc/acpi, can use acpidump tool, so ACPI may not be
disabled. Therefore my machine may not be able to pass
is_valid_acpi_path(METHOD_HCI_x).
====================
When I used Ubuntu Hardy, Fn key worked perfectly.
