An update from 2014 with newest 3.14 kernel should be quite good! Also I was talking to Bero about a Pegatron Platform device driver I wrote a few months ago to add support for hotkeys on Linux platform for some Pegatron laptop. I was thinking about include it into our kernel.
What do you guys think about it?
