The tpctl user-space tool, in conjunction with the thinkpad kernel module, provide access to SMAPI functions on ThinkPads. It provides rich functionality for older ThinkPads, but on newer ThinkPads much of this functionality is exposed and supported through an ACPI interface and the SMAPI access does not work anymore. Other models are supported by tp_smapi. NOTE!
The thinkpad modules are not compatible with newer kernels.
