Indeed, my Satellite X205-9800 uses that method, however, it only provides HCI call 0x001E (Hotkey Events) and no System Event FIFO (0x0016), instead, hotkeys are entered on a variable called TOHK (TOshiba HotKeys?). Located in my model in
PCI0.LPCB.EC0.TOHK
and it appears that it can be _polled_ tru' method INFO (TOSH_INTERFACE_2 ".INFO"), perhaps a small change in the polling to reflect to that method for TOS1900 devices would be necessary.
On my model the complete call would be:
\\_SB.VALZ.SPFC \\_SB.VALZ.INFO
Is it different from \\_SB_.VALZ.SPFC or it simply doesn't matter?
Saludos Azael
