Hi everyone,
I have a small but stupid issue on how the "power" (poweroff) event is
generated. Both the real power button (as in acpi/button.c) and the power
button in the keyboard (those with "media" keys) generate the same
indistinguishable event.
This is the event I get with both:
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000
As a result, I cannot remap the keyboard event without also disabling the
handler for the real power button. I obviously want both.
Can I assign a different code, or string, or whatever (as long as I can match
it in userland) to either the real or keyboard button to distinguish the two?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
