This should no longer be needed, as it already is in the opensuse 11.1 kernel package by default, as it is part of mainline already.
Events - The current package by Vincent Steenhoute on the Build Service https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=eeeEvents&project=home%3Aciv75%3AEEE
Not sure if the events one is kernel related.
Then why is it needed?
Did you try this hardware without any additional kmps added? What did not work?
thanks,

Aloha,
I did indeed try 11.1B4 on the hardware (eeePC701-4G). ACPI doesnt seem to be working, power management complains about it.
Please file a bug for this, we'll look into it.
As for the events, that is needed to be able to utilise the hardware buttons to access volume/brightness/other functions via the keyboard. It also enables the OnScreenDisplay notifications for the button presses.
So this is a kernel module? Or is it just a userspace program? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
