[tlinux-users:02341] problem getting toshiba utilities working on 8100
06/08/2002
I just installed gentoo linux 1.1a on a toshiba 8100 (PIII/500 variant), and configured, built and
installed the 2.0.1 toshiba linux utilities, and configured my kernel to build the toshiba support as a
module.

with the module loaded, I can't seem to get any of the utilities working; for example, the fan replies with
the message:

fan: laptop does not have cooling fan or kernel module not installed.

I have some diagnostic data listed below. is there anything else I can provide? can the utilities be
built in debug mode so we can get some more info?

Thanks for any help (and my 8100 will thank you once the fan starts working!!! )

Toshiba System Managment Mode driver v1.11 26/9/2001

[tlinux-users:02342]       06/09/2002
I am not sure but it may well be because you have ACPI enabled in
the kernel. The SCI version number returned in /proc/toshiba is
rubbish, which is perhaps the first clue something is amiss.
[tlinux-users:02345]       06/09/2002
Excellent, that worked!

That would be good FAQ material, if it's not already
there, and I missed it.

Thank you very much.
