 The module takes a debug parameter which can be used to selectively
 enable various classes of debugging output, for example:
 
-	 modprobe ibm_acpi debug=0xffff
+	 modprobe thinkpad_acpi debug=0xffff
 
 will enable all debugging output classes.  It takes a bitmask, so
 to enable more than one output class, just add their values.
