Hello,
I believe that if you do the following, then the "thinkpad_acpi" bay
handler *should* install and work properly (in Ubuntu 8.10):
- Add "thinkpad_acpi" to /etc/modules
- Add "blacklist bay" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
- Run "update-initramfs -u"
- Reboot
This prevents bay.ko from autoloading and places thinkpad_acpi in the boot
ramdisk image, where it is able to be loaded before anything else that
might try to install a handler.
Hope this helps,
-j.
