Hi, is it worth to contact ibm in some sort of conserted effort to get this going?
Just found this thread, http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0412.1/index.html#0544.
Of particular interest is some code that got posted there. --Danguy 05:28, 28 Apr 2005 (CEST)
useless code
This (C#) code is useless.
It does not read the actual sensors which gets done by a seperate device driver (shockprf.sys)
IBM not interested
I have contacted IBM several times on the providing of specs for the APS. They are simply not interested. And yes, everybody within IBM may at any time experiment with Linux. But no, since there is no commercial interest for a Linux-port of this APS-feature, they are not doing it.
