Bug 211988 – >=sys-apps/hal-0.5.10 - ThinkPad Extra Buttons not recognized

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Martin Schanzenbach 2008-03-01 15:54:31 UTC]

The new hal has a bug not recognizing the "ThinkPad Extra Buttons".
This also keeps the hotkeys Fn+F4 from working (Suspend).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Buy Thinkpad
2.emerge hal
3.lshal | grep input.product

Actual Results:  
  input.product = 'Sleep Button (CM)'  (string)
  input.product = 'Lid Switch'  (string)
  input.product = 'Power Button (FF)'  (string)
  input.product = 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad'  (string)
  input.product = 'TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'  (string)
  input.product = 'AT Translated Set 2 keyboard'  (string)
  input.product = 'Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse'  (string)

Expected Results:  
  input.product = 'ThinkPad Extra Buttons'  (string)
  input.product = 'Sleep Button (CM)'  (string)
  input.product = 'Lid Switch'  (string)
  input.product = 'Power Button (FF)'  (string)
  input.product = 'SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad'  (string)
  input.product = 'TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'  (string)
  input.product = 'AT Translated Set 2 keyboard'  (string)
  input.product = 'Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse'  (string)

I have already modified the patch from the link and it seems to apply fine to sys-apps/hal-0.5.10.

Closing then now that 0.5.11-r1 is in tree?
