I think the 15 series are somewhat similar but, I believe in terms of the monitor identification it uses CRT-0 instead pf DFP-0 like the L702X, if I recall correctly, which makes me think something else might be a little different on the ACPI end, but I could be wrong.
Hopefully, someone with a 15 series machine can confirm or deny this for us. James On Sun, Jun 5, 2011 at 2:55 PM, Albert Vilella <[email protected]> wrote: > Awesome!
