ACPI Dock/Undock events?

[Tom Sparks]

Sadly, that module doesn't seem to work with my system.

--- snip ---
# kldstat |grep dock
17    1 0xffffffff81d02000 20da     acpi_dock.ko

# sysctl sysctl dev.acpi_dock.0.status
sysctl: unknown oid 'dev.acpi_dock.0.status'
--- snip ---

I am running 10.2-STABLE on a Thinkpad T520 with a standard dock.
I have a T530 with -HEAD on it, I'll try there too.
