  Hi:

  (1) Fully updated with test repos. Thinkpad W520.

     I have kernel 3.2.5-1.


  I see this in logs:

 lap3 kernel: [282571.053156] thinkpad_acpi: unknown possible thermal
alarm or keyboard event received
 lap3 kernel: [282571.053160] thinkpad_acpi: unhandled HKEY event 0x6040
 lap3 kernel: [282571.053161] thinkpad_acpi: please report the
conditions when this event happened to ibm-acpi-devel at lists.sourceforge.net


   (2) lsmod shows thinkpad_acpi is running.

   I found in /lib/modules was

kernel/drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.ko.gz
and possibly
kernel/drivers/acpi/acpi_pad.ko.gz

  The first one seems to be version 0.24 but I cannot tell if its the
0.24-20110604 version or earlier - at least by poking at the .ko.

   (3)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ibm-acpi/files/thinkpad-acpi/0.24-20110604/

  Suggests this is/may be fixed in this version - could our version of
thinkpad_acpi be out of date?

  Thanks

 gene
