R4000 and R4100 keyboard quirk patch for linux-2.6.29
R4000 suffers from the same quirk. Quirk now includes R4000 Bios information too.
(Above patch was updated at the request of an owner of an R4000) Information for such is available here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gentoo/+source/linux/+bug/385477 Can we have someone test the above patch, who owns an HP/Compaq R4000, on their kernel 2.6.29? (It should work on stable 2.6.29-gentoo-r5) We need to know that it works before suggesting it for mainline. I don't think you'll find any extra testers here, instead just send on the patch upstream for any laptops that you have tested or received success reports for. You'll also need to update it based on code layout changes since you wrote your patch. Please send it upstream (or ask for help doing so) then we'll wait for its acceptance.

Update for upcoming 2.6.31
For 2.6.31 compatibility.
addresses changes in ps2 quirk definition standards
THIS IS A PATCH. (gentoo bugzilla error doesn't let me indicate patch :*( )
What is the source of this patch? (And, btw, there is a Type = patch ability in our Bugzilla. Notice the type of the r4000.patch attachment) (In reply to comment #7) > What is the source of this patch? > > (And, btw, there is a Type = patch ability in our Bugzilla. Notice the type of > the r4000.patch attachment) > Yes, for some reason I keep getting random glitched out whenever trying to submit as a patch here... "undef error - Undefined subroutine Fh::slice at data/template/template/en/custom/global/hidden-fields.html.tmpl line 58 ". Lovely stuff :( But yeah, I wrote the patch. We have confirmed success for various units in the R4000-series... including R4200, myself R4100, and another random on ubuntu testing with the R4000 - all of these confirmed for 2.6.31. I do another pull, then I'll try to get this to mainline tonight. It's stable with the Laptop DMI manufacturer/model detection; no reason it shouldn't go. Great, thanks! Let us know when this gets submitted upstream Marking Bug as closed. gentoo-sources-2.6.31 includes this fix. I have submitted it upstream, and Linus included it in the 2.6.31-rc9 kernel release. Should start appearing in distribution-specific stable trees within the next few months. Thanks for your help everybody! :) Resolution: LATER ? Whoops... need to clean up here. |
