Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hdapsd
I have successfully loaded the tp_smapi and the hdaps_ec module in a
Hardy installation on my Thinkpad X60s:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lsmod
Module Size Used by
[...]
hdaps_ec 14556 0
tp_smapi 23952 0
thinkpad_ec 8464 2 hdaps_ec,tp_smapi
[...]
I install both the hdapsd packet and the hdaps-utils packet via
synaptic, I reboot and i try to run the hdapsd deamon to protect my hard
drive:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ hdapsd -d sda -s 15 -a
WARNING: Cannot open hdaps position input file
/dev/input/hdaps/accelerometer-event (Permission denied). You may be using an
incompatible version of the hdaps module, or missing the required udev rule.
Falling back to reading the position from sysfs (uses more power). Use '-y' to
silence this warning.
open(protect_file): No such file or directory
if I run it with sudo:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo hdapsd -d sda -s 15 -a
Password or swipe finger:
open(protect_file): No such file or directory
but when I run hdaps-gl IT WORKS I can see the 3d image of my computer
moving and the movement is perfect, totally calibrated.
In fact /dev/input/hdaps/accelerometer-event is actually present on my
comp, because hdaps installed a udev rule that creates this sym link,
the link is root only tough, probably that is why I can't access it
without sudo.
the Ubuntu version is:
Description: Ubuntu 8.04
Release: 8.04
the tp_smapi and the hdaps_ec modules are in the package:
linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-16-generic
or
linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-17-generic
probably both but I'm running 2.6.24-17 kernel now
** Affects: hdapsd (Ubuntu)
