Modifying the kernel keymap

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

 



All,

I'm working with the Wing Linux and Linwizard projects in porting
various omap850-based devices to Linux, and was wondering about
keymaps.

In particular, I'm working with the HTC Herald, which uses an Alt key
to access things like numbers and symbols on a physical keyboard.  In
Linux, the keymappings are wrong for this -- Alt does something
different and doesn't allow access to those extra characters.

In Linwizard, we've modified the defkeymap and added makefile rules to
compile our modified defkeymap when a specific board was selected, but
this isn't portable when building a kernel for many boards at once,
each having a different mapping.

So, my question is, what is the best way to go about changing the
defkeymap, or supplying a keymap that allows all the keys to function
correctly, but doesn't require non-portable makefile hacks?

Thanks,
Cory
