NAME¶
wakebay
—
will wake up Apple PowerBook Mediabay devices
SYNOPSIS¶
wakebay |
[ /dev/<device> ] |
DESCRIPTION¶
wakebay
is a program, which is useful only
for Apple Macintosh Powerbooks. On invocation, it will wake up the specified
Mediabay device that was powered down by sleep. Waking up the device involves
sending an IOCTL to the device to force it to check for a media change, thus
revalidating the device info. Newer kernels do this internally so
wakebay
should only be needed on old kernel
versions.
