Typically the interface is used for function and hotkey handling, but additional features may be present. SEE ALSO
acpi(4), acpidalb(4) Microsoft Corporation, Windows Instrumentation: WMI and ACPI, http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/pnppwr/wmi/wmi-acpi.mspx, December 4, 2001. HISTORY
The acpiwmi device driver appeared in NetBSD 6.0. AUTHORS
Jukka Ruohonen <jruohonen@iki.fi> wrote acpiwmi and most of the mappings. CAVEATS
While WMI should provide a certain degree of portability across laptop models from a particular vendor, there is no guarantee that the map- pings are functional in all models. The wmihp driver may conflict with hpqlb(4). BSD
