Re: [patch] add quirk to fix volume wheel on Toshiba U300 laptops

	Actually this patch should go into udev. udev now handles keyreleasing.
drivers/input/keyboard/atkbd.c is to no longer take fixes like this.

	There is a rule in udev 95-keyboard-force-release.rules .. you just
need to add these machines. There is a file common-volume-keys you would
have run for these machines .. you'll see other machines in the rules
file with the same fix.
