Description Felix Buenemann 2004-07-23 15:16:52 UTC

Hi,

this ebuild is lying around for some time in my local portage tree. It includes support for absolute event devices as supported by Linux 2.6 (e.g. Synaptis Touchpads). The patches are from Dmitry Torokhov's website at:
http://www.geocities.com/dt_or/gpm/gpm.html

I stripped the processing of all previous patches to gpm as dmitry's patches change some of gpm's structure to clean it up and I didn't want to bother adapting all the patches to it.

upstream has integrated evdev support and i'm not too interested in trying to
maintain it myself ...
