plans for toshiba_acpi
Those are great news to hear, but I have a question.
Is the new /dev/toshiba interface going to have support for HCI only or also for SCI?
That is because a small program I'm doing for KDE uses both interfaces for accesing battery save mode, battery info, display brightness, etc. to the user, so it will be great to have an SCI interface also, this is just in case the "toshiba" driver fails my program can use "toshiba_acpi" driver instead or viceversa.

Yes, the /dev/toshiba provided by toshiba_acpi will support HCI and SCI-- it's exactly the same as the toshiba driver. If you want to try it, the patch has been available for some time at
