Richard, Now that KEY_UNKNOWN as the top choice is gone, and that HAL seems to want to map keys by default, the solution I used to not generate hotkey input events and ACPI events in duplicate is busted. I can only think of a few ways to go about it: 1: always generate both events (may cause problems for sleep to disk and sleep to ram, at the very least) 2: allow the user to select which one using an extra mask in sysfs, default is ACPI 3: allow the user to select which one using a module parameter, default is ACPI And the default of 2 and 3 will be bad for input/HAL, because it either will require a module parameter or a write to sysfs to enable input hotkeys, otherwise it would break the ACPI event ABI (because ACPI events would not be generated anymore).
