Package: hdapsd
Version: 1:20090129-1
Severity: normal
hdapsd, by default, sets a udev rule, z60_hdapsd.rules. This rule file
is present in my current installation under /etc/udev/rules.d/
On 2.6.28, I had no issues. I never saw the following error message
there.
Wed Apr 1 02:48:51 2009: WARNING: Cannot open hdaps position input file
/dev/input/hdaps/accelerometer-event (No such file or directory). You
may be using an incompatible version of the hdaps module, or missing the
required udev rule.
Falling back to reading the position from sysfs (uses more power).
Use '-y' to silence this warning.
And there's no /dev/input/hdaps/ folder. And that's probably because the udev
rule
is not being matched.
I also noticed that on 2.6.29, hdaps and tp-smapi modules cannot
coexists. On .28, both could be loaded, tp-smapi being the first.
So on .29, if I only use the tp-smapi module, hdapsd will not start. And
that looks to be because of this:
grep -q hdaps /proc/modules || modprobe hdaps && sleep 1
Because hdaps module will not load anymore.
Oh!! Not only that. Manually starting hdapsd will also not work with
tp-smapi + 2.6.29

Do you have the hdaps module loaded?
champaran:~# lsmod |less
champaran:~# lsmod |grep smapi
tp_smapi 19096 0
thinkpad_ec 6448 1 tp_smapi
And with just the hdaps kernel module, things work. Just with the exception of
the udev
rule warning. And some others also.

Do you have the hdaps module loaded?
So actually, in case it is switching to the polling mode. :-(
Probably, we just need a newer tp-smapi-source.
