Unfortunately that's not what he wants... he wants a book that I referred
to which is called the "thinkpad 560 technical reference".
the part number is/was #76H7587 for the "IBM Thinkpad 650 Technical
Reference". i got mine a year ago for about 30$US. not worth it.
it's only half the story. SMAPI allows you to set some basic power type
stuff, and do some monitoring. Such as: Which power mode am/should I
be in? Setting the resume timer. Which display to use.
Missing are things, like on how to enable and disable on board
devices, changing their interrupts/io portz, how to slow down the cpu
and anything to with what you want, mucking with how hibernation
works.
The book refers to the "IBM Personal System/2 Hardware Interface
Technical Reference" and "IBM Personal Computer BIOS Interface", which
i ain't seen.
