31.Nm acpi_hp
32.Nd "ACPI extras driver for HP laptops"
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34To compile this driver into the kernel,
35place the following line in your
36kernel configuration file:
37.Bd -ragged -offset indent
38.Cd "device acpi_hp"
39.Ed
40.Pp
41Alternatively, to load the driver as a
42module at boot time, place the following line in
43.Xr loader.conf 5 :
44.Bd -literal -offset indent
45acpi_hp_load="YES"
46.Ed
47.Sh DESCRIPTION
48The
49.Nm
50driver provides support for ACPI-controlled features found on HP laptops
51that use a WMI enabled BIOS (e.g. HP Compaq 8510p and 6510p).
52.Pp
53The main purpose of this driver is to provide an interface,
54accessible via
55.Xr sysctl 8 ,
56.Xr devd 8 and
57.Xr devfs 8 ,
58through which applications can determine and change the status of
59various laptop components and BIOS settings.

281.Sh BUGS
282This driver is experimental and has only been tested on CURRENT i386 on an
283HP Compaq 8510p which featured all supported wireless devices (WWAN/BT/WLAN).
284Expect undefined results when operating on different hardware.
285.Pp
286Loading the driver is slow. Reading from /dev/hpcmi is even slower.
287.Pp
288Additional features like HP specific sensor readings or writing BIOS
289settings are not supported.
