the power button does produce real down/up events, but until today,
when we released new EC firmware, both down and up came right
together, independent of how long the button was held. plus, the
power button appears on a different input device than the rest of the
keyboard, which shouldn't confuse things, but might.
the new EC code produces real PRESSED and RELEASED events which the
kernel now translates to to real key down/up input events. ben needed
this for the android power dialog, which relies on timing the button
press duration in order to pop up the menu. it's vaguely possible
that this change also fixes the screenshot combo.
Thanks, John and Paul.
As Paul said new EC code generates real PRESSED and RELEASED events for
power button now.
But it doesn't fix the screenshot combo. I suspect it because the of the
Volume down button is actually
inside the keyboard, It doest not produces real pressed and released
events when long pressing instead
of produces a sequence of fake pressed and released events.
BTW:
Does anybody has any suggestion about what we should mapping these
buttons on XO-4 screen pad in Android
system? For example should we mapping a button switch between LCD color
and mono mode?
Thanks,
Ben
