#### TPB CONFIGURATION FILE

### DEVICE SETTINGS

## NVRAM
# Should define the nvram device from where the information about the key
# states is read. Default is /dev/nvram.
#
#NVRAM       /dev/nvram

## POLLTIME
# Defines the delay between polls in microseconds. Default is 1000.
#
#POLLTIME    1000


### KEYBINDINGS AND CALLBACK

## THINKPAD
# String with command and options that should be executed when ThinkPad
# button is pressed. The command is executed by the system() call. So it is
# possible to execute any shell code. By default no command is executed.
#
#THINKPAD    xterm -T ntpctl -e ntpctl

## HOME
# String with command and options that should be executed when Home button
# is pressed. By default no command is executed.
#
#HOME        mozilla

## SEARCH

# is pressed. By default no command is executed.
#SEARCH      mozilla http://www.google.com

## MAIL
# String with command and options that should be executed when Home button
# is pressed. By default no command is executed.
#
#MAIL        xterm -T mutt -geometry 140x40 -e mutt

## CALLBACK
# String with command and options that should be executed each button press 
and
# state change. tpb passes an identifier as first argument and the new state 
as
# second argument to the callback. So you can do fancy things :) By default no
# command is executed. Supported identifiers and states are:
#
#  IDENTIFIER        STATES/VALUE
#  thinkpad          pressed
#  home              pressed
#  search            pressed
#  mail              pressed
#  zoom              on, off
#  thinklight        on, off
#  display           lcd, crt, both
#  expand            on, off
#  brightness        PERCENT
#  volume            PERCENT
#  mute              on, off
#  ac_power          connected, disconnected
#  powermgt_ac       high, auto, manual
#  powermgt_battery  high, auto, manual
#
#CALLBACK    /usr/share/doc/tpb/callback_example.sh


### MIXER SETTINGS

## MIXER
# Use OSS mixer to change volume and for mute/unmute. This should be use on
# models with no hardware mixer (volume and mute buttons show no effect). R31
# is reported to have no hardware mixer. To use this you must enable write
# access to the NVRAM device (possibly dangerous). Possible values are on and
# off. Default is off.
#
MIXER      ON

## MIXERSTEPS
# Defines how much steps should be available when using the OSS mixer. Default
# is 14. If an other number of steps is used, tpb needs write access to the
# nvram device.
#
MIXERSTEPS  14

## MIXERDEVICE
# Defines the mixer device to use for OSS mixer support. Default is 
/dev/mixer.
#
MIXERDEVICE /dev/mixer


### POWERMANAGEMENT SETTINGS

## APM
# Some ThinkPads generate mouse and keyboard events or have a high CPU load 
when
# polling /proc/apm. You may enable this, if you want the AC connected/AC
# disconnected messages. Default is off.
#
APM ON

## POWERMGT
# The program apmiser (part of tpctl package) switches the power management
# mode according to the needs of the user. This results in lots of changes
# displayed in OSD. To avoid this, the power management messages can be turned
# off. Default is auto.
#
#POWERMGT    auto
