Description:   Opened: 2004-10-31 15:03 0000

Significant as http://tpctl.sourceforge.net/ hasn't been adequately updated
since June. Thank you!

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. See thinkpads running new utils and driver
2. Notice that they aren't running Gentoo
3. Sob uncontrollably

Actual Results:  
Consoled myself with a fierce game of UT.

Expected Results:  
Installed latest and greatest.

Support for 2.6.9+ kernels, along with better functionality overall.

From notes on thinkpad (driver):
"Release Name: 5.8

Notes: 5.8 changes from 5.7 -------------------- 19Sep2004 JDTH : thinkpadpm:
Switch from unsigned long to cpumask_t. Thanks to Stefan Seyfried for the clue.
This version still won't compile on the latest 2.6.9-rc kernels."

I manually rename thinkpad-5.7 to thinkpad-5.8.
5.7 and 5.8 compiled fine (kernel gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.9-r4), but insmod thinkpadpm.ko complain about unresolved symbols get_cpu_ptr and put_cpu_ptr.

Fixed InCVS.
