<p>shifted ancient linux guide that isn&#039;t applicable anymore</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Linux support ==<br /> <br /> In general, see [[How_to_hotswap_the_UltraBase]] and [[How_to_hotswap_Ultrabay_devices]].<br /> <br /> This can be problematic under Debian, as the default kernel (2.6.18) do not support the IBM docks by default, as the IBM_DOCK and DOCK methods are not compatible. This is not a problem with 2.6.22 for some reason. Under 2.6.18, you need to recompile the Linux kernel with CONFIG_ACPI_IBM_DOCK enabled, and CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK disabled. You also need to hook a few scripts into the acpi events system.<br /> <br /> ibm-dock.sh:<br /> #!/bin/sh<br /> <br /> # acknowledge docking with the dockstation<br /> echo dock &gt; /proc/acpi/ibm/dock<br /> <br /> ibm-undock.sh:<br /> #!/bin/sh<br /> <br /> # prepare the laptop for undocking with the dockstation<br /> <br /> echo undock &gt; /proc/acpi/ibm/dock<br /> <br /> events/ibm-dock:<br /> <br /> event=ibm/dock GDCK 00000000 00000003<br /> action=/etc/acpi/ibm-dock.sh<br /> <br /> events/ibm-undock:<br /> <br /> event=ibm/dock GDCK 00000003 00000001<br /> action=/etc/acpi/ibm-undock.sh<br /> <br /> 2.6.22-rc2 actually works without a flaw, without the above modifications, provided that the &quot;bay&quot; and &quot;dock&quot; modules are loaded at boot time.<br /> <br /> According to [http://alcopop.org/unix/linux/x40/dock/ this page] you'll have to use this command to undock, since 2.6.18 kernel (after loading the dock module) :<br /> <br /> echo 1 &gt; /sys/devices/platform/dock.0/undock</div>
