Andrew,
I think he refers to the omnibook driver, that can be found at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/omke/

And it is needed for brightness/fan/temperature/buttons of omnibooks or acer aspire laptops like mine.

Why do you not have it in the kernel and what can i do to get it in the kernel, so that i do not need to patch or compile external for everytime when I switch to a new kernel?
