Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Pegasos keyboard detection
Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2007 21:28:32 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200707250128.l6P1SWSF1336935@shell01.TheWorld.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200707230616.l6N6GaPg1212004@shell01.TheWorld.com>
As of 2.6.22 the kernel doesn't recognize the i8042 keyboard/mouse controller
on the PegasosPPC. This is because of a feature/bug in the OF device tree:
the "device_type" attribute is an empty string instead of "8042" as the
kernel expects. This patch (against 2.6.22.1) adds a secondary detection
which looks for a device whose *name* is "8042" if there is no device whose
*type* is "8042".
