Here's a possible way out: enable ADB keycodes in the new kernel, so the
keycodes are selectable via the /proc file. Then put an entry in
/etc/sysctl.conf something like
dev/mac_hid/keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes=1. (Can we do this for pmac
only?) So new installs get linux keycodes, and upgrades get to have a
real choice, which is documented in the upgrade notes.
Adam, I don't want to go down the route of using sysctl.conf for this;
it's supposed to be local admin only.
I see, this makes sense.
Would it be worthwhile to make
ADB keycodes be available, and not default? Is there ANY reason not to
do this? It's a relatively straightforward kernel patch.
This would make me very happy, and I would guess not a few others.
Thank you very much!
Zeen,
