Ok, I can prepare a patch. But I have a question: Is there any pending patches which are proposed but not yet applied to repository?
My change will affect many lines of code, so I am afraid it will likely conflict with other patches. So it would be simpler to commit all the pending changes to git repository, then let me work for a day. --Van On Fri, 2011-02-11 at 11:18 -0800, Alan Coopersmith wrote: > On 02/10/11 04:55 PM, Van de Bugger wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I am looking into setxkbmap source.
