 I'm using T21 2647-9AG, kernel 2.6.8.1 + swsusp2, ACPI version: 20040816
First good news: ibm_acpi didn't wreck my beloved T21 =o)
Bad news is that ibm_acpi doesn't work for me at all. Fn-F3/F4/F12 do
nothing no matter if i loaded module or not. They don't even generate
any entries in /var/log/acpid. I can't turn on/off ThinkLight using
/proc/acpi/ibm/light. /proc/acpi/ibm/video is not working too (although
Fn-F7 works even without ibm-acpi). Fn-PgUp (ThinkLight on/off), Fn-Home/End
(brightness) is also working (but it works w/o ibm-acpi).

 Ejecting seems to work tho it didn;t created any entries in log
(reinserting dvd-drive put:
[Sat Sep 18 00:43:47 2004] completed event "ibm/bay MSTR 00000001 00000000"
in the log)

 Borislav, if You are interested in supporting T21 i can send You dsdt.

  Best regards,
	Robert
