Subject: [PATCH] Make atkbd.c use unsigned short instead of unsigned int
Date: Fri, 08 Aug 2008 23:06:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1218229583.6152.14.camel@note.localnet> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 556 bytes --]
Hi list,
I've got an Acer Extensa 5220 with some extra "Euro" and "Dollar" keys.
I wanted to make these keys known to the kernel, so I wrote an .fdi file
for hal.
Unfortunately the configuration of the "Euro" and "Dollar" (and some
other key) failed, because:
a) the atkbd driver uses unsigned char to store the keymap
b) the KEY_DOLLAR is 0x1b2 (which doesn't fit in 8 bits).
I created a small patch which changes the keymap to use
unsigned short.
PS: I'm not subscribed to the LKML, please email me directly.
