Hi, Maybe pertinent to current discussions of thermal management on various thinkpads .. I just checked acpi_ibm.c 1.7.2.4 (6.x) and see that it still doesn't include the fan level support introduced to 7.x at 1.10 http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/acpi_support/acpi_ibm.c.diff?r1=text&tr1=1.10&r2=text&tr2=1.7.2.4 Is there any particular reason this wasn't / can't be MFC'd to 6.x? cheers, Ian ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 21:55:51 +0200 From: Richard Arends <richard@unixguru.nl> To: Ian Smith <smithi@nimnet.asn.au> Cc: Norberto Meijome <freebsd@meijome.net>, FreeBSD Mobile ML <freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org> Subject: Re: Management of Thermal On Wed, Oct 17, 2007 at 02:27:48AM +1000, Ian Smith wrote: Ian, > Just browsing: > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/acpi_support/acpi_ibm.c > > What revision of that have you?

On my stable tree I MFC'ed the acpi_ibm a few times myself. Totaly forget about it :) Now i'm running the normal acpi_ibm in stable again and indeed the fan_level hook isn't there anymore. Adapting acpi_ibm to stable was not that hard but you can also try to run RELENG_7, it is fairly stable at the moment :) -- Regards, Richard.
