Fixed.  
 
 
As you all know the the Thinkpad X60 does not exist in the whitelist. My
 
first attempt at getting hdaps working in debian was to simply add the
 
model into the whitelist. This is how it ended:
 
 
hdaps: supported laptop not found!
 
hdaps: driver init failed (ret=-6)!
 
 
With help from Insount on #hdaps he recommended for me to load tp_smapi.
 
Directions are available here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/tp_smapi.
 
While mounting the module,  this is what dmesg had to say:
 
 
tp_base: tp_base 0.22 loaded.
 
  tp_smapi: tp_smapi 0.22 loading...
 
tp_smapi: successfully loaded (smapi_port=0xb2).
 
hdaps: supported laptop not found!
 
hdaps: driver init failed (ret=-6)!
 
 
Forcing the hdaps module to load:
 
'insmod ./hdaps.ko force=1'
 
 
dmesg reported:
 
 
hdaps: initial latch check good (0x05).
 
hdaps: device successfully initialized.
 
input: hdaps as /class/input/input3
 
hdaps: driver successfully loaded.
 
 
  cat /sys/devices/platform/hdaps/position
 
Verifies that it is working.
 
 
To complete the installation:
 
make install HDAPS=1"
 
 
and add "force=1" to hdaps in modprobe.conf (or equiv).
 
 
 
To get the module to load in debian first add
 
tp_smapi
 
hdaps
 
to /etc/modules
 
and then add the file /etc/modprobe.d/hdaps and have it contain:
 
options hdaps force=1
 
  
 +
HDAPS works fine using tp_smapi 0.27+
  
 
*Hibernating
 
*Hibernating
  
I also have both hibernating and sleeping working. The only problem is that sda1/ata1 complains a whole lot and ata1 resets.
+
Both Hibernation and sleep fail on resume. This is most likley do to the serial hard disk.
 
 
I will clean this up when I get some more time.
