|

If you are compiling this driver as included in the Linux kernel
|
||||
sources, simply enable the CONFIG_ACPI_IBM option (Power Management /
|
||||
ACPI / IBM ThinkPad Laptop Extras). The rest of this section describes
|
||||
how to install this driver when downloaded from the web site.
|
||||
|
||||
First, you need to get a kernel with ACPI support up and running.
|
||||
Please refer to http://acpi.sourceforge.net/ for help with this
|
||||
step. How successful you will be depends a lot on you ThinkPad model,
|
||||
the kernel you are using and any additional patches applied. The
|
||||
kernel provided with your distribution may not be good enough. I
|
||||
needed to compile a 2.6.7 kernel with the 20040715 ACPI patch to get
|
||||
ACPI working reliably on my ThinkPad X40. Old ThinkPad models may not
|
||||
be supported at all.
|
||||
|
||||
Assuming you have the basic ACPI support working (e.g. you can see the
|
||||
/proc/acpi directory), follow the following steps to install this
|
||||
driver:
|
||||
|
||||
- unpack the archive:
|
||||
|
||||
tar xzvf ibm-acpi-x.y.tar.gz; cd ibm-acpi-x.y
|
||||
|
||||
- compile the driver:
|
||||
|
||||
make
|
||||
|
||||
- install the module in your kernel modules directory:
|
||||
|
||||
make install
|
||||
|
||||
- load the module:
|
||||
|
||||
modprobe ibm_acpi
|
||||
|
||||
After loading the module, check the "dmesg" output for any error messages.
