OK, thanks for testing! I agree that a special case handling would have no positive effect. I tried to contact Edgar earlier past month, but until now I can't seem to get in touch with him. If there is no reply in a reasonable amount of time, I'll release the patch, it won't hurt anyone ;) Again thanks, Elias -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
