 This driver provides support for the accelerometer found in various HP laptops

 "HP 3D DriveGuard". It detects automatically laptops with this sensor. Known

+their axis automatically oriented on standard way (eg: you can directly play
 neverball). The accelerometer data is readable via
 /sys/devices/platform/lis3lv02d. Reported values are scaled
 to mg values (1/1000th of earth gravity).
