After a bit of search, I noticed the patches within http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2009-11/msg00598.html however I didn't find a conclusion. Do you remember (or does anyone else) what happened to the patches or how we could get hotkey support into the default kernels? Thanks! Andi ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Thanks! Back then a debate started and no updated version of the patch was ever posted. But nothing fundamentally wrong with the patch. Ralf ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

The old patch is out-of-date, perhaps we can start a new trip to upstream the latest version maintained at http://dev.lemote.com/code/linux-loongson-community. The latest one threaded the irq interrupt handler and fixed some bugs. Hope somebody else can work on it for I'm a little busy currently ;-) Thanks Ralf, Regards, Wu Zhangjin > > Ralf > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

The 3.0.4-libre-lemote kernel from http://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/lemote/gnewsense has everything except hotkey support for wireless. The CONFIG_RTL8187 and CONFIG_RTL8187B options are disabled in the config file. Typing "echo 1 > /sys/class/rfkill/rfkill0/state" does nothing, even when the kernel is reconfigured with those drivers enabled. The 2.36.8-loongson-2f kernel from http://bjlx.org.cn/loongson2f/squeeze has functional hotkey and wireless networking capability. However, the date resets to 1968 when restarted, thus messing up certificates, and scrolling with the keybad is disabled. I would really appreciate suggestions for adding wireless/hotkey capability to the 3.0.4-libre-lemote kernel, or fixing the date problem and adding the keybad scrolling capability on 2.36.8-loongson-2f! Should I add the patch, modify options, or both? Thanks!

Should I add the patch, modify options, or both? I guess something may have been broken from 2.6.39 or 3.0, because I have no enough time to continue the maintaining, sorry, hope you can try 2.6.37 or 2.6.38 from http://bjlx.org.cn/loongson2f/squeeze instead.
