I don't really know. But I took a look at the qtmoko keyboard a year or two ago (I hardly remember any detail) and got the impression that not as it is. But then I don't know anything that could do that. In X it is easier, I think. But without X what is the abstraction for a keyboard this application should plug into ? Should there have to be a keyboard driver in the kernel or something? Should it pass as a tty ? Where does network-manager get it's keystrokes from ? I don't know how many front-ends for network manager there are... The Qtmoko keyboard was simpler that X with compose keys and all the possibilities to generate characters combining keys (that would be wellcome but wasn't there). _______________________________________________ Community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goldelico.com/mailman/listinfo.cgi/community http://www.openphoenux.org
