--- Comment #18 from Peter Amidon <[email protected]> --- I've found some Microsoft documentation about button devices for Windows 8 Tablet and Convertible devices; it looks like they used the hardware-reduced profile from ACPI 5.0. I think that the right way to implement these devices would be to implement a new driver module just for dealing with these buttons. Here's a link to a page inthe Windows ACPI design guide for SoC platforms, which contains, among other things, a section on button arrays: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn495671%28v=vs.85%29.aspx#button The previous page links to this one, but I think that it looks useful, so I'll post it here as well; it's a white paper on hardware buttons for Win8 tablet/convertible devices: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn613928%28v=vs.85%29.aspx I haven't gotten a chance to look at these too thoroughly yet, but I'll take another look at them tomorrow. From my quick look, it looks like the hardware buttons are all connected to separate interrupts on the main chip, so the kernel would need to figure out how te set those interrupt lines to be wake-enabled. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV.
