patch to fix keyboard key repeat problem on Toshiba laptops
patch, synthesised from 2.4.21-pre4-ac4, against 2.4.20-acpi, though I believe
it's applicable to the generic kernel as -acpi is pretty generic.
here is a fix for the problem: http://www.spierrel.freesurf.fr/ar01s07.html Do you still get this on any of the recent -ck // -gs // -vanilla // -gentoo kernels? I will have an opportunity to try some new kernels in about 3 weeks. I'll let you know how it goes. AfC As requested, I've tried on a bunch of kernels. Does the problem exist in: <PRE> gentoo-sources 2.4.20-gentoo YES, STILL BROKEN gs-sources 2.4.23-pre8-gss OK!!! development-sources 2.6.0-test11 OK!!! </PRE> Which seems pretty good. You still need to use that patch I attached to this bug if you're using gentoo-sources, but otherwise, seems ok. Thanks, I'll commit this in... Patch is in gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r11. Thanks! |
