Hi Takawata-San,

I'm using your acpi_sony device on a freebsd-5 machine (ported from
-current).  My laptop is a VGN-A290.  I was wondering whether you had
any more patches to this device driver?  In particular although the
backlight switches off the screen stays active whilst the machine is
suspended.  Do you have a fix for this?

Also, there are some funny things happening with sound.  I can't get any
audio out from the CD player (using cdcontrol to play) although I can
hear mp3s.  Also, when the laptop is connected to the docking station I
can't get any sound out of the connected speakers.  Do you know what
might be wrong?

Regards,
Joe
