Support for speakup missing in Ubuntu Maverick linux kernel

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

 



Speakup uses a hack to fake key press events.  It directly calls the
key event handler defined in linux/drivers/char/keyboard.c.  In
previous versions of the kernel shipped with Ubuntu, the array of
keyboard handlers was exported.  Now, it's static.  There is no
possible way to access the k_handler array from speakup.  Further,
there has been no additional functionality added to keyboard.c to
enable us to fake key press events.

I don't know how to deal with this.  Any ideas?
