Furthermore, some cRemote implementations have incorrectly omitted the kRepeat flag from repeat events in the past. As far as I remember, the latest report of this on this list was not resolved. It was with some RF remote control unit, as far as I remember. To be exact, it was in the kernel input event driver in that case, but there have been bugs in user-space drivers as well. Users of such RCUs could accidentally send "power, power" with a single press of the button. > And together with the other numerous reasons for not shutting down, > this gets confusing: Use power button to override running > timers, and use ok button to override timers in a few minutes? I hope you will find some logical solution. And I'm sure someone will complain, no matter what you come up with. :-) Marko
