29.Dt ACPI_TOSHIBA 4
30.Os
31.Sh NAME
32.Nm acpi_toshiba
33.Nd Toshiba HCI interface
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35To compile this driver into the kernel,
36place the following line in your
37kernel configuration file:
38.Bd -ragged -offset indent
39.Cd "device acpi_toshiba"
40.Ed
41.Pp
42Alternatively, to load the driver as a
43module at boot time, place the following line in
44.Xr loader.conf 5 :
45.Bd -literal -offset indent
46acpi_toshiba_load="YES"
47.Ed
48.Sh DESCRIPTION
49HCI is Toshiba's
50.Em "Hardware Control Interface"
51which is somewhat uniform across their models.
52The
53.Nm
54driver allows the user to manipulate HCI-controlled hardware using a number of
55.Xr sysctl 8
56variables.
57.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
58The following sysctls are currently implemented:
59.Bl -tag -width indent
60.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.force_fan
61Causes active cooling to be forcibly enabled
62.Pq Ql 1
63or disabled
64.Pq Ql 0
65regardless of the current temperature.
66.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.video_output
67Sets the active display to use according to a bitwise OR of the following:
68.Pp
69.Bl -tag -width indent -compact
70.It Li 0
71No display
72.It Li 1
73LCD
74.It Li 2
75CRT
76.It Li 4
77TV-Out
78.El
79.Pp
80Only some systems (i.e., the Libretto L5) support video switching via
81this hardware-specific driver.
82Use the
83.Xr acpi_video 4
84driver for generic video output support.
85.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.lcd_brightness
86Makes the LCD backlight brighter or dimmer (higher values are brighter).
87.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.lcd_backlight
88Turns the LCD backlight on and off.
89.It Va hw.acpi.toshiba.cpu_speed
90Sets the CPU speed to the specified speed.
91This provides functionality similar to the
92.Va hw.acpi.cpu.throttle_state
93variable.
94Higher sysctl values mean lower CPU speeds.
95.El
96.Pp
97Defaults for these variables can be set in
98.Xr sysctl.conf 5 ,
99which is parsed at boot-time.
100.Sh LOADER TUNABLES
101The
102.Va hw.acpi.toshiba.enable_fn_keys
103tunable enables or disables the function keys on the keyboard.
104Function keys are enabled by default.
105.Pp
106This behaviour can be changed at the
107.Xr loader 8
108prompt or in
109.Xr loader.conf 5 .
