Subject: Extra keycodes
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 17:53:29 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060223175328.GA25482@srcf.ucam.org> (raw)

Hi,

Several laptops have keys that are intended to show battery status. In 
order to present a consistent view to userspace, it would be nice to 
have a standard keycode to map them to. linux/input.h doesn't currently 
provide anything appropriate. What's the correct way of allocating 
another keycode?
