it's possible to tell HAL to ignore certain devices. Here's what we do to tell HAL to ignore network interfaces (found on Cardoe's blog): <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <match key="net.interface" exists="true"> <merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge> </match> </device> </deviceinfo> That file goes into usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/20thirdparty/. Maybe we can do something similar for remotes, eg by expanding the hwdb to contain a field which triggers a remote-specific HAL rule.. Or at least document the ability to ignore devices somewhere. -- [Hardy] Lirc devinput (linux-input-layer) broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204960 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
