KEYS
USING YACPI
To write programs for other notebooks is very difficult because some features I can not test because my laptop doesn't support them. So please test it and if you find errors send reports. Please include an strace output (e.g. strace -o yacpi.error yacpi, but gdb backtrace would be better) and a directory tree of /proc/acpi .
