yep.  it seems that 'tlp at pci?' is absent from GERNERIC_LAPTOP (hey,
don't ask me >:}) but present in INSTALL_LAPTIO -- cc'ing tech-kern@ if
someone wants to add...there may be a good reason it's not there.

bash-2.05# grep -i tlp GENERIC_LAPTOP
tlp*    at cardbus? dev ? function ?    # DECchip 21143
tlphy*  at mii? phy ?                   # ThunderLAN PHYs

bash-2.05# grep -i tlp INSTALL_LAPTOP
tlp*    at pci? dev ? function ?        # DECchip 21x4x (and clones)
Ethernet
#options       TLP_MATCH_21040
#options       TLP_MATCH_21041
#options       TLP_MATCH_21140
#options       TLP_MATCH_21142
tlp*    at cardbus? dev ? function ?    # DECchip 21143
tlphy*  at mii? phy ?                   # ThunderLAN PHYs

do two things:

*) Roll your own kernel
*) send-pr(8)
