Exporting EV_SW SW_LID events from thinkpad-acpi to input layer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



thinkpad-acpi can now be made to export EV_SW SW_LID events to the input
layer.

However, most (all?) thinkpads will also generate ACPI notifications to
\_SB.LID, on LID changes, i.e. this would duplicate an ACPI LID event, and I
undertand ACPI is already moving to provide those over an input device by
itself.

Given that situation, is it desireable for thinkpad-acpi to export EV_SW
SW_LID events by itself (possibly duplicating an event that the ACPI layer
will also issue)?  Or should I just ignore the lid events, and leave them
for the ACPI layer to deal with?
