Some hotkey leds are embedded on button.  Through the pictures I found 
on the internet (thinkpad t520), it looks like there is a led at the 
center of the mute button.

There is no reason to change a power button to a reset button after 
accessing the acpi device "SSMS", the "SSMS" is for the mute led instead 
of the power management.

I think it is better you login to the lenovo website and look for the 
latest BIOS image, then upgrade the BIOS on your machine to see if it 
can solve the problem or not.

There is no more update since 2013, and I'm using the latest one. The
real bug is likely in the BIOS (it also has some other oddities), but
the trigger was this patch.

I suggested to have a quirk installed for my model - it cannot benefit
from this change anyway. Now I'm waiting for feedback on how to address
this best *in Linux* (because this is what we have under control).

Thanks,
Jan

Hmm, I think I am missing something here.

Please explain _in detail_ what you mean with "changing a power button to a
reset button by acessing the SSMS ACPI method in a X121e".

Are we trigering a bug somewhere that crashes the x121e and causes it to
reboot?
