> I was wondering how you know what action should be associated with what key? I don't. I could though, using model-specific knowledge (i.e. a table) and help from the linux thinkpad community and thinkwiki.org.
I don't like the idea of stuffing kernel space with model-specific knowledge (i.e. a table) even if it is in a driver. These tables should be in user space...
We deliver to userspace something like "Fn+F1" pressed, instead of "blank screen" pressed, because "blank screen" is in different keys depending on thinkpad model.
Yes, you should generate generic key event through input layer.. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
