udev 95-keyboard-force-release.rules patch

[Aleksander Kowalski]

Hello
I'm not sure if this is the right address to send this message.

I had problems with a volume wheel on my toshiba equium laptop. I have
found a solution and I think you could include it in next udev
version.

Basically i needed to add my laptop model in
95-keyboard-force-release.rules file.
Please find attached the diff file. I think you could modify the file
further for use with other toshiba equium laptops.

Regards
Aleksander Kowalski

System: Slackware-14.1
udev-182

Hi,
format of the rules has changed, 95-keyboard-force-release.rules is obsolete.
Please prepare a patch for http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/plain/hwdb/60-keyboard.hwdb
instead.

Best,
Zbyszek

There has never been a response from you to this or Zbigniew's mail.
I'm happy to do the translation to the new hdwb format for you, but
you unfortunately forgot to actually attach your diff?

Thanks,

Martin

Hi
I didn't respond because I use slackware which doesn't include systemd
at all. I added the diff file previously as an email attachment, maybe
this wasn't the right way to do it. Here it is as plain text:

Hm, the mail I had had no attachment at all. No idea where things went
wrong. Anyway..
