1 ThinkPad laptops include a proprietary interface called SMAPI BIOS
2 (System Management Application Program Interface) which provides some
3 hardware control functionality that is not accessible by other means.
5 tp_smapi is highly recommended if you're using a ThinkPad laptop.
7 Not all functions are available on all models; for detailed status, see:

10 WARNING:
11 This driver uses undocumented features and direct hardware access.
12 It thus cannot be guaranteed to work, and may cause arbitrary damage
13 (especially on models it wasn't tested on).
