[ltp] ibm-acpi-0.4

[Borislav Deianov]

Hi,

A long vacation and some turmoil at work kept me away from ibm-acpi
for a month, but I'm back at it.

This is the fourth alpha release of my ACPI driver for IBM ThinkPad
laptops. The features currently supported are:

        - Fn key combinations
        - Bluetooth enable and disable
        - video output switching, video expansion control
        - ThinkLight on/off
        - limited docking and undocking
        - UltraBay device eject

So far, it has been tested on several T, X and R series ThinkPads. I
appreciate any user reports, either successful or unsuccessful. Please
see the included README for more information.

Changes since 0.3:

        - support for video output switching
        - video expansion control
        - UltraBase device eject
        - all commands can be issued as module parameters at insmod time
        - the hotkey mask can be in a 0xXXXX format
        - dropped the brightness/LCD off feature, didn't work
        - updated example acpid configuration scripts

The video output control can be used to avoid the annoying flicker and
video corruption when opening the lid on the X40. See the README for
details.

The ibm-acpi project now has an official home, thanks to Arno Willig
