Comment 2 Tony Vroon (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-03-09 14:25:59 UTC
The unpacked 0.2.2 sources have no mention of UINPUT. Also, my kernel does not have UINPUT enabled yet ThinkFinger works perfectly. You may have seen UINPUT conversions happening to ThinkFinger *in SVN* upstream, but that is completely irrelevant to the ebuild in portage until a release is made with that code.
Note that an if-statement in the global scope is not allowed. I'm sorry, but this bug is not valid at all, as far as 0.2.2 is concerned.
