Created attachment 234784 [details] Shar archive of the acpi_hidd port The purpose of this port is to provide access to the ACPI keys of computers, such as the GPD MicroPC, through a simple device driver which can be adapted or generalized to many similar computers. The acpi_hidd driver provides the human interface device features of the ACPI EC module, in particular brightness and media control keyboard support. The driver has sysctl(8) and devd(8) interfaces; the sysctl(8) interface allows inspection and control of the screen brightness, and the devd(8) interface provides notifications about keypresses that do not have support for their functionality built into the driver (such as the media keys).
