using xorg 1.5 and hal fdi-based system, lineak doesn't work correctly with my xps m1330. that is, keyboard layout seems to be changed, or better keycode are changed. xev confirm my theory. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. upgrade to xorg 1.5 2. launch lineakd using xps generation 2 configuration Actual Results: special keys don't work correctly I propose a new configuration for xps, it follows: [DELL-XPS-M1330-XOrg-1_5] # By skypjack brandname = "Dell" modelname = "Inspiron XPS M1330 XOrg 1.5" [KEYS] Mute = 121 VolumeDown = 122 VolumeUp = 123 Play|Pause = 172 Previous = 173 Next = 171 Stop = 174 WinKey = 133 FnWinKey = 134 Menu = 135 [END KEYS] [END DELL-XPS-M1330-XOrg-1_5] This works correctly, please update lineakkb.def .
Please attach a patch for it and i'll apply it. I won't be copy'n'pasting anything from bugs, sorry.
Created attachment 198770 [details] proposed patch proposed patch to make dell xps m1330 xorg1.5 compliant
in the previous patch there are also some definition that enable several keys like menu, home, and so on
(In reply to comment #3) > in the previous patch there are also some definition that enable several keys > like menu, home, and so on > thanks, I've applied it (without revbump) in our ebuild. just a sidenote: patches should be made against the source directory, not against the files installed in system to be out-of-box usable (your patch had absolute path to /etc in it). but it's no big deal, i've just removed the /etc part from it, and it applied cleanly. if you want this setup to be in also next release, if there will be one, you should also post it to the lineakd upstream guys. perhaps they have a ticket system, bugzilla, tracker, in their homepage. thanks!
