Hello Rui,

With your changes of acpi_asus.c in RELENG_7 the devd(8) and my
hook-script in /usr/local/etc/devd/ath.conf sees the Fn+F2 now as the
event "ACPI ASUS-Eee _SB_.ATKD", but it is anyway if Fn+F2 switches off
or on the wireless NIC, the event for devd(8) is always the same;
from the above event it is clear where
the strings for system ACPI and subsystem ASUS-Eee come from, but I
don't see where the string "_SB_.ATKD" is made; it must be derived
from the 'notify' argument of the call

                /* Notify devd(8) */
		acpi_UserNotify("ASUS-Eee", h, notify);

and I was hoping to distinguish it into two different events, one when
Fn+F2 is switching off the NIC, and one of the case of switch on; any
idea? thx

	matthias
