+LG Gram laptop extra features
+=============================
+
+By Matan Ziv-Av <matan@svgalib.org>
+
+
+Hotkeys
+-------
+
+The following FN keys are ignored by the kernel without this driver:
+
+- FN-F1 (LG control panel) - Generates F15
+- FN-F5 (Touchpad toggle) - Generates F13
+- FN-F6 (Airplane mode) - Generates RFKILL
+- FN-F8 (Keyboard backlight) - Generates F16.
+ This key also changes keyboard backlight mode.
+- FN-F9 (Reader mode) - Generates F14
+
+The rest of the FN keys work without a need for a special driver.
+
+
+Reader mode
+-----------
+
+Writing 0/1 to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/reader_mode disables/enables
+reader mode. In this mode the screen colors change (blue color reduced),
+and the reader mode indicator LED (on F9 key) turns on.
+
+
+FN Lock
+-------
+
+Writing 0/1 to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/fn_lock disables/enables
+FN lock.
+
+
+Battery care limit
+------------------
+
+Writing 80/100 to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/battery_care_limit
+sets the maximum capacity to charge the battery. Limiting the charge
+reduces battery capacity loss over time.
+
+This value is reset to 100 when the kernel boots.
+
+
+Fan mode
+--------
+
+Writing 1/0 to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/fan_mode disables/enables
+the fan silent mode.
+
+
+USB charge
+----------
+
+Writing 0/1 to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/usb_charge disables/enables
+charging another device from the USB port while the device is turned off.
+
+This value is reset to 0 when the kernel boots.
+
+
+LEDs
+~~~~
+
+The are two LED devices supported by the driver:
+
+Keyboard backlight
+------------------
+
+A led device named kbd_led controls the keyboard backlight. There are three
+lighting level: off (0), low (127) and high (255).
+
+The keyboard backlight is also controlled by the key combination FN-F8
+which cycles through those levels.
+
+
+Touchpad indicator LED
+----------------------
+
+On the F5 key. Controlled by led device names tpad_led.
