qc71-laptop module

Avatar
AndyM48

I am wondering if the slimbook-qc71-laptop module is https://github.com/pobrn/qc71_laptop or if it has been modified by slimbook.

It seems that most of the functionality is already provided in the BIOS, so I am wondering if there are any advantages in installing it?

Good afternoon, Andy

Yes, it is a fork from pobrn's kernel module, however it only offers basic/common features and not several of our features in our laptops (eg, work modes)
You can check in our version at https://github.com/Slimbook-Team/qc71_laptop on the `generic_slimbook` branch, that branch is the one we package for our laptops

Thanks for the reply. That page looks identical eg:

Quote from the slimbook page:

How to install

Downloading

If you have git installed:

git clone https://github.com/pobrn/qc71_laptop

What are "work modes"?

Hello, Andy
The README is outdated, sorry
The install is the same except replacing any link that references pobrn's repo to ours (with the generic_slimbook branch)
So:
`git clone https://github.com/Slimbook-Team/qc71_laptop --branch generic_slimbook`

The work modes provide several performance modes to the laptop (power-saver, balanced, performance)
