Charles, I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that your Thinkpad APM patch (to i8042.c) worked like a charm for me. This is on a 600X (2645-4EU). I got the patch from: http://mailman.linux-thinkpad.org/pipermail/linux-thinkpad/2004-January/014944.html Thanks very much. I am very appreciative of your work. ----------- Scott Hunt Provo, UT
