Arch Linux

And BTW, if you actually tried installing this package, it will have erased your existing "toshiba_acpi" module, and you should re-install the kernel to recover the module:

$ sudo pacman -S linux

or

$ yaourt -S linux

Really, this package should be removed from the AUR. At best, it confuses people, and at worst, it erases the very file they thought they needed.

In the PKGBUILD, the "linux-headers" package is a dependency:

depends=("dkms" "linux-headers")

In the .install file, "$1" does not include the pkgrel variable. This should be removed from the directory names in the PKGBUILD, but the quick-fix is to manually edit the .install and change "$1" to "$1-0".

Regardless, this module source is for circa 2.6 kernels, and the "toshiba_acpi" module is now included with the kernel. To confirm that it has already been loaded automatically, try running:

$ lsmod|grep "*tosh*"

Even then, to see all the devices _not_ supported by the current module, try:

$ dmesg|grep "*tosh*"

Hopefully, additional ACPI support will be added in the future, for whatever you might find is not yet working.

Update the PKGBUILD :)

But the archive toshiba_acpi.tar.gz does not have the Makefile needed by the PKGBUILD, so it won't install

You do install the package dkms and run service dkms
