I'll take this opportunity to note that I'm uploading a preliminary in-kernel driver that does nothing but forward the relevant data to userspace to my PowerBook web-page. It'll also get input event injection capabilities and I'm also writing a small userspace driver for the data that will make the touchpad work crudely. I'll then leave it for a bit -- maybe someone else can pick up and write palm detection etc. > No, the 2 things above are GPIOs (general purpose IO pins), that > apparently are used as interrupts.

That would make sense since it is supposed to be used to save the hd. johannes
