Well, you can always unbind interface 0 from usbhid -- it corresponds
to the 2-1.1:1.0 file in /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usbhid/.  If you do that,
you'll probably find the few keys which _do_ currently work suddenly
stop working.

But there's nothing to be done immediately about interface 1; usbhid is
_already_ using it.  It just isn't using it correctly.

Adi,

could you please provide output of

	cat /syse/kernel/debug/hid/<keyboard>/rdesc

anytime after the keyboard has been plugged, and

in /sys/kernel/debug/hid I have two devices for the keyboard. One is
0003:060B:0230.0002 and the other 0003:060B:0230.0003

attached are the rdesc files for both devices.


	cat /syse/kernel/debug/hid/<keyboard>/events
  >  from the time you press any of the working and non-working keys? (both

I only get events for the working keys on the *:0002 device.
All other files were empty after I pressed some keys.

The events for the working keys are attached in the *.events file.
I first pressed backspace and then the menu key.

Hi Adi,

  I'm not sure about my patch below because of interface one, maybe you
can give it a try.

Hi Christoph,

I haven't gotten around to compiling a new kernel yet.
Tzy-Jye Daniel Lin mentioned in a mail to me that adding
usbhid.quirks=0x060b:0x0230:0x0040 to the kernel command line
would achieve the same as the patch you posted.
I did try that on a 2.6.32 kernel and that didn't help.
I'll still generate a new kernel with your patch applied it's probably going to take a couple of days though.

Cheers
   Adi

Subject: [PATCH] HID: add quirk for Solid Year keyboard ACK231

This patch adds HID_QUIRK_MULTI_INPUT to Solid Year keyboard ACK231
which reports keystrokes from inside a firmware-configuration
interface instead of using its own interface.
