Bug#543238: RFA: toshset -- Access much of the Toshiba laptop hardware interface
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Since I no longer have the hardware necessary for testing this
package, I request an adopter for the toshset package.
The package description is:
Toshset is a command-line tool to allow access to much of the
Toshiba laptop hardware interface developed by Jonathan Buzzard. It can do
things like set the hard drive spin-down time, turn off the display
and set the fan speed without the help of the kernel.
Toshset requires an experimental version of the toshiba_acpi kernel module
with an ACPI-enabled kernel. Otherwise it works only if the laptop supports
the old APM BIOS. (The last of these was produced something like 5 years ago)
Please read README.Debian how to install the experimental version of the
toshiba_acpi kernel module. (Ubuntu users don't need it)
.
This package also includes the Toshsat1800-irdasetup by Daniele Peri. It
can be used to configure IrDA for laptops with ALI1533 bridge (LPC47N227
SuperIO), smc-ircc and not initializing BIOS (tested on Toshiba Satellite
1800-514). Homepage: http://www.csai.unipa.it/peri/toshsat1800-irdasetup/
Cheers,
Giuseppe.
