You're loading the wrong version of hdaps. The patched version built
by tp_smapi would never output this when you pass the force=1
argument:

        if (!(dmi_check_system(hdaps_whitelist) || hdaps_force)) {
                printk(KERN_WARNING "hdaps: supported laptop not found!\n");
                ret = -ENXIO;
                goto out;
        }
