27.Dt ACPI_TOSHIBA 4
28.Os
29.Sh NAME
30.Nm acpi_toshiba
31.Nd Toshiba HCI interface
32.Sh SYNOPSIS
33To compile this driver into the kernel,
34place the following line in your
35kernel configuration file:
36.Bd -ragged -offset indent
37.Cd "device acpi_toshiba"
38.Ed
39.Pp
40Alternatively, to load the driver as a
41module at boot time, place the following line in
42.Xr loader.conf 5 :
43.Bd -literal -offset indent
44acpi_toshiba_load="YES"
45.Ed
46.Sh DESCRIPTION
47HCI is Toshiba's
48.Em "Hardware Control Interface"
49which is somewhat uniform across their models.
50The
51.Nm
52driver allows the user to manipulate HCI-controlled hardware using a number of
53.Xr sysctl 8
54variables.
55.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
56The following sysctls are currently implemented:
57.Bl -tag -width indent
58.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.force_fan
59Causes active cooling to be forcibly enabled
60.Pq Ql 1
61or disabled
62.Pq Ql 0
63regardless of the current temperature.
64.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.video_output
65Sets the active display to use according to a bitwise OR of the following:
66.Pp
67.Bl -tag -width indent -compact
68.It Li 0
69No display
70.It Li 1
71LCD
72.It Li 2
73CRT
74.It Li 4
75TV-Out
76.El
77.Pp
78Only some systems (i.e., the Libretto L5) support video switching via
79this hardware-specific driver.
80Use the
81.Xr acpi_video 4
82driver for generic video output support.
83.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.lcd_brightness
84Makes the LCD backlight brighter or dimmer (higher values are brighter).
85.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.lcd_backlight
86Turns the LCD backlight on and off.
87.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.cpu_speed
88Sets the CPU speed to the specified speed.
89This provides functionality similar to the
90.Va hw.acpi.cpu.throttle_state
91variable.
92Higher sysctl values mean lower CPU speeds.
93.El
94.Pp
95Defaults for these variables can be set in
96.Xr sysctl.conf 5 ,
97which is parsed at boot-time.
98.Sh LOADER TUNABLES
99The
100.Va hw.acpi.toshiba.enable_fn_keys
101tunable enables or disables the function keys on the keyboard.
102Function keys are enabled by default.
103.Pp
104This behaviour can be changed at the
105.Xr loader 8
106prompt or in
107.Xr loader.conf 5 .
