To identify a tablet device it needs to read/write into the serial device which is probably not a good idea (go through each ttySx and read write to it). I could imagine things are exposed via ACPI and one could identify a tablet serial device from the name or even the HID of it's ACPI device. That would make it possible to identify it as a tablet device without the need of reading/writing to it. Bjorn AFAIK fixed up some acpipnp parts for tablet devices, he might be able to give us a quick pointer how serial tablet device identifcation should work. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
