any updates? how can i contact you for some advices?
i have vpcz134gx and got funtoo on it. for now i'm leaving hybrid card issue for the last one i would try to work around.
but what disturbing me now is that i can't make fingerprint to work and backlight of keyboard(actually i can see it in /sys/modules/sony_laptop/parameters but have no idea how to turn on and if light sensor is working) |

I haven't done any new configurations ...
I think fingerprint is still unsolved.
Keyboard is managed behind the OS, no idea if it is configurable from it (haven't played in Windows for a long time). |

I was able to shave another 3W by shutting down bluetooth, the thing identified by powertop as "Radio Device: Sony Vaio Control Device"
On this website I found about rfkill interface
http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/laptops/sony-laptop.txt
| Code: | $> grep . /sys/class/rfkill/*/{state,name}
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/state:1
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill1/state:1
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill2/state:1
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/name:sony-wifi
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill1/name:sony-bluetooth
/sys/class/rfkill/rfkill2/name:phy0 |
[/code]
I simply have set the contents of /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill1/state to 0 and bluetooth is off |
