There are 3 ports involved. The 0xed "non-existant delay port" and a pair
of ports that are through the Super-I/O / IDE. They are used in a
index+value setup similar to reading/writing the AT keyboard controller.
From what I remember, my conclusion was that these instructions were the
ones to park the heads and then lock the IDE bus. It's a couple of months
ago, but somewhere I have the simplified version of what it was doing...

Paul, if you can find that information and Join us into the Project,
then we will be very happy about it. I hope you still have your
ThinkPad. ;-)
So, let me get this correct. The Super-I/O only sends the information or
should we be reading the information of what the accelerometer is
outputting?
The way I was thinking about it, is that you would only read from the
accelerometer, and within the value that is read, you will park or not
the heads depending on how sensitive the user specified the option on
the driver.
