http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=541351 Summary: smarter way to set the hal keyboard properties Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: lnussel@novell.com QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=319468) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=319468) the code instead of generating an fdi file in the xdm init script and restarting hal a preprobe callout script could be used. hal will run that itself whenever it detects a keyboard. Via normal callouts it's also possible to change the hal properties on the fly without restarting hal. See attached code. Untar in / and rm /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/11-keymap.fdi The methods could even be combined. Ie the preprobe script could generate the fdi file if needed so it doesn't need to run hal-set-property. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
