Subject: HID blacklist for the Apple IR sensor
Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2007 20:26:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070710182636.GA12522@dose.home.local> (raw)
Hi,
in commit a417a21e10831bca695b4ba9c74f4ddf5a95ac06, the Apple IR sensor
was added to a blacklist so that no HID device is created anymore.
However, as of lirc 0.8.2, there is a lirc driver called "macmini" that
requires that HID device to work. There is also a driver that creates
an input device for the Apple IR sensor. It can be found in the
mactel-linux patches[1], but it is not in the kernel yet. I also don't
know how both sides behave if they are used concurrently.
I think that the blacklist entry for USB_DEVICE_ID_APPLE_IR should be
removed at least as long as the appleir.patch is not part of the
mainline kernel.
Please CC me in replies.
Regards,
Tino
