Dell Laptop Buttons Plug-in for KMilo

KMilo is a service for kded, the KDE daemon. KMilo is new to KDE 3.2.
|
|
It allows plug-ins which interact with the special buttons found on
|
|
some keyboards and laptops.
|
|
|
|
This plug-in reads the /proc/i8k file that is created by the i8k kernel
|
|
module. If this file does not exist then the plug-in will not load.
|
|
|
|
The code in this module is heavily based on:
|
|
- the Asus Laptop plug-in for KMilo by Chris Howells (howells@kde.org)
|
|
- the Thinkpad plug-in by Jonathan Riddell (jr@jriddell.org)
|
|
|
|
Also, for the Dell specific implementations, code was taken from the
|
|
i8kutils package of Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@debian.org> which can be
|
|
downloaded from http://www.debian.org/~dz/i8k/

COMPATIBILITY:
|
|
|
|
This plug-in should work on any Linux distribution that has the i8k module
|
|
loaded or compiled into the kernel. Compatibility is really dependant on
|
|
the i8kutils package of Massimo Dal Zotto <dz@debian.org> which can be
|
|
downloaded from http://www.debian.org/~dz/i8k/. Currently (20041122), this
|
|
should support:

Inspiron 1100 (BIOS A06), one fan, no buttons
