Tclkeymon is a daemon for Toshiba laptops that use ACPI and the Toshiba ACPI extensions. It monitors function keys and Toshiba-specific buttons (including the CD player buttons and the state of the laptop lid) and responds appropriately.

Release Notes: This release invokes wish and loads expect dynamically instead of running expectk. It no longer starts and stops the PCMCIA service when switching between the Ethernet (eth0) and wireless (wlan0). The Fn-d key combination to toggle DMA on the combo CD/DVD device has been added. It no longer clears the button queue on every poll, if no key/button has been pressed. Initial support has been added for a configuration file (/etc/tclkeymon.conf). aumix is used when muting/unmuting the audio (Fn-Esc), and the previous volume setting is saved between operations.

You need to add an "xhost +localhost" to your login profile. See the INSTALL file in the current distribution.

I LOVE this program. I use this laptop to teach a seminar and use a projector and this F5 button working is a life saver!
Anyway, I can not get the tclkeymon to start automatically using the script and the line in the rc.local. The error I'm getting is on line 659 that has the line "wm withdraw" line. At least that is what the log file said. Any ideas? I can get it to work, but it runs in a terminal and once I shut it, the screen stays bright, but the program ceases to run. Any help would be appreciated. I double triple checked my syntax and permissions and all that, so I wonder if I'm missing something.
