ACPI_TOSHIBA(4)	       BSD/i386 Kernel Interfaces Manual       ACPI_TOSHIBA(4)

NAME
     acpi_toshiba — Toshiba HCI interface

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your
     kernel configuration file:

	   device acpi_toshiba

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
     following line in loader.conf(5):

	   acpi_toshiba_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     HCI is Toshiba's Hardware Control Interface which is somewhat uniform
     across their models.  The acpi_toshiba driver allows the user to manipu‐
     late HCI-controlled hardware using a number of sysctl(8) variables.

SYSCTL VARIABLES
     The following sysctls are currently implemented:

     hw.acpi.toshiba.force_fan
	     Causes active cooling to be forcibly enabled (‘1’) or disabled
	     (‘0’) regardless of the current temperature.

     hw.acpi.toshiba.video_output
	     Sets the active display to use according to a bitwise OR of the
	     following:

	     0	     No display
	     1	     LCD
	     2	     CRT
	     4	     TV-Out

	     Only some systems (i.e., the Libretto L5) support video switching
	     via this hardware-specific driver.	 Use the acpi_video(4) driver
	     for generic video output support.

     hw.acpi.toshiba.lcd_brightness
	     Makes the LCD backlight brighter or dimmer (higher values are
	     brighter).

     hw.acpi.toshiba.lcd_backlight
	     Turns the LCD backlight on and off.

     hw.acpi.toshiba.cpu_speed
	     Sets the CPU speed to the specified speed.	 This provides func‐
	     tionality similar to the hw.acpi.cpu.throttle_state variable.
	     Higher sysctl values mean lower CPU speeds.

     Defaults for these variables can be set in sysctl.conf(5), which is
     parsed at boot-time.

LOADER TUNABLES
     The hw.acpi.toshiba.enable_fn_keys tunable enables or disables the func‐
     tion keys on the keyboard.	 Function keys are enabled by default.

     This behaviour can be changed at the loader(8) prompt or in
     loader.conf(5).
