Description-en: ThinkPad hardware/firmware access modules source - dkms version
The tp_smapi kernel module exposes some features of the ThinkPad
hardware/firmware via a sysfs interface. Currently, the main implemented
functionality is control of battery charging and extended battery status.
The underlying hardware interfaces are SMAPI and direct access to the
embedded controller.
.
This package also brings the source for an improved version of HDAPS
which should work on newer ThinkPads too (the stock kernel version does
not).
.
This package contains the source to be built with dkms.
