Description-en: HDAPS daemon for various laptops with motion sensors
This is a disk protection user-space daemon. It monitors the acceleration
values through an interface and automatically initiates disk head parking
if a fall or sliding of the laptop is detected.
.
Currently, the following interfaces are supported:
* IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad (HDAPS)
* Apple iBook/PowerBook (AMS)
* Apple MacBook/MacBook Pro (APPLESMC)
* HP (HP3D)
* Dell (FREEFALL)
* Toshiba (ACPI and HAPS)
* Acer (INPUT)
.
On ThinkPads, it is recommended that you use this daemon with the hdaps
module provided by tp-smapi rather the one in the kernel, as this will save
you a bit of power and will work on a wider range of ThinkPads.
