Wrote new article — about how to use some ThinkPad-specific keys with FreeBSD. Most of the Fn-keys and volume control separate keys could be uses "as is" — the OS passes the proper and well-known keycodes (like XF86audioMute, etc) to the X server. But some keys needs some "black magic" (devd and acpi_ibm kernel module). The bonus point — how to use ThinkLight to signal about low battery level with Morse code :drgn_aww: https://eugene-andrienko.com/it/2026/03/24/freebsd-thinkpad-specific-keys.html #ThinkPad #FreeBSD
