I've played with apanel some month ago. I've never found the keys and the 
switch over the I2C bus. So I was starting my own module (fsc_btns) to play 
with the IO range announced by ACPI. There I found it all. But my module 
doesn't work on all Lifebooks (S7110 for example; has no such ACPI device).

Do you think it is wise to merge apanel and fsc_btns? I think it's too 
different.

PS: I've no informations or specs from Fujitsu Siemens, so this can be totally 
wrong.
