Advanced Configuration and Power Interface(ACPI)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

* ACPI support provide numerous tables of data describing a computer's
configuration and power management capabilities.

* ACPI aims to consolidate and improve upon existing power and configuration standards for hardware devices.

* ACPI contains definition blocks that describe all the hardware
that can be managed through ACPI.

* These definition blocks include both data and machine-independent byte-code that is used to perform hardware management operations.

* ACPI was designed to enable the operating system to set up and control the individual hardware components.

If you want to see the output of the ACPI tables refer the following link.

NAME
acpi_toshiba -- Toshiba HCI interface SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your kernel configuration file: device acpi_toshiba Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): acpi_toshiba_load="YES" DESCRIPTION
HCI is Toshiba's Hardware Control Interface which is somewhat uniform across their models. The acpi_toshiba driver allows the user to manip- ulate HCI-controlled hardware using a number of sysctl(8) variables. SYSCTL VARIABLES
The following sysctls are currently implemented: hw.acpi.toshiba.force_fan Causes active cooling to be forcibly enabled ('1') or disabled ('0') regardless of the current temperature. hw.acpi.toshiba.video_output Sets the active display to use according to a bitwise OR of the following: 0 No display 1 LCD 2 CRT 4 TV-Out Only some systems (i.e., the Libretto L5) support video switching via this hardware-specific driver. Use the acpi_video(4) driver for generic video output support. hw.acpi.toshiba.lcd_brightness Makes the LCD backlight brighter or dimmer (higher values are brighter). hw.acpi.toshiba.lcd_backlight Turns the LCD backlight on and off. hw.acpi.toshiba.cpu_speed Sets the CPU speed to the specified speed. This provides functionality similar to the hw.acpi.cpu.throttle_state variable. Higher sysctl values mean lower CPU speeds. Defaults for these variables can be set in sysctl.conf(5), which is parsed at boot-time. LOADER TUNABLES
The hw.acpi.toshiba.enable_fn_keys tunable enables or disables the function keys on the keyboard. Function keys are enabled by default. This behaviour can be changed at the loader(8) prompt or in loader.conf(5). SEE ALSO
acpi(4), acpi_video(4), loader.conf(5), sysctl.conf(5), sysctl(8) HISTORY
The acpi_toshiba driver first appeared in FreeBSD 5.1. AUTHORS
The acpi_toshiba driver was written by Hiroyuki Aizu <aizu@navi.org>. This manual page was written by Philip Paeps <philip@FreeBSD.org>. BSD
