Description Anton Bolshakov 2006-08-13 15:00:48 UTC
It was a lot of changes and new versions.
The author is trying to include it to the kernel as well.
It will take a while for sure, because we don't want to see buggy and not legal (fsf) code in the kernel. 

To make the story short and give others to try latest version please update the portage. The latest changes:

0.27 2006-08-05
---------------------
Visible changes:
- Renamed tp_base.* to thinkpad_ec.*.
  NOTE: If you have manual modprobe commands or configuration mentioning 
  tp_base, you'll need to change them.
- hdaps: All HDAPS-equippedThinkPads should be now be automatically
  recognized. Whitelisting is needed only for changing the axis
  configuration.
- hdaps: Removed 'force' module parameter, it's no longer needed.

Internal changes:
- Renamed all tp_controller_* functions to thinkpad_ec_*.
- Small change to invalidation in hdaps_device_init().
- Separate Kconfig changes into separate patches.
- Clean up generated patch format a bit.
