Could it be the righter answer?I think it makes sense for atkbd and usb hid power and sleep buttons to be treated like all other keys on those keyboard types. As a result, I think it makes sense for ACPI keys to behave in the same way. I wrote an addon for hal to take input events and put them on the system dbus some time ago, so that's already a solved problem.
So now you can do a shortcut and send ACPI events to dbus without involving input layer and hal. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
