It looks like micro-evtd just uses the GPIO to watch for the power button being pressed. The feature is optional (guarded by #define). If we could get the kernel to do that instead, we could omit the GPIO monitoring.
Actually, the fallback code to poll the microcontroller for button presses seems to work just fine as well.
Roger, would you be willing to try the attached patch on your devices? I can upload a .deb somewhere if that would help.
