ibm-acpi events
| key | event |
|---|---|
| Fn-F3 | ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001003 |
| Fn-F4 | ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001004 |
| Fn-F12 | ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 0000100c |
| Power | button/power PWRF 00000080 xxxxxxxx |
| Display lid | button/lid LID 00000080 xxxxxxxx |
| Ultrabay eject | ibm/bay MSTR 00000003 00000000 |
| Ultrabay inserted | ibm/bay MSTR 00000001 00000000 |
tpb configuration
| key | config keyword |
|---|---|
| Access IBM | THINKPAD |
| Home | HOME |
| Search | SEARCH |
| Favorites | FAVORITES |
| Reload | RELOAD |
| Abort | ABORT |
| Backward | BACKWARD |
| Forward | FORWARD |
| Fn | FN |
| Fn-Space | CALLBACK (zoom on/off) |
| Fn-PageUp | CALLBACK (thinklight on/off) |
| Fn-F7 | CALLBACK (display lcd/crt/both) |
| Fn-F8 | CALLBACK (expand on/off) |
| Fn-PageUp | CALLBACK (brightness <percent>) |
| Fn-PageDown | CALLBACK (brightness <percent>) |
| Volume up | CALLBACK (volume <percent>) |
| Volume down | CALLBACK (volume <percent>) |
| Vokume mute | CALLBACK (mute on/off) |
To all parameter keywords should be assigned the full path to the executables supposed to be started on key press. The exectable provided for the CALLBACK keyword should take the parameters given in parentheses and act according to them. If you want to use xmodmap for the HOME, SEARCH, MAIL, FAVORITES, RELOAD, ABORT, BACKWARD, FORWARD and FN keys you should provide a XEVENTS=off in your tpbrc.
