Hi,
The mice and keyboards in xf86-input-evdev/src/evdev.c:EvdevProbe handle a
"multiple-capability" device wrong for my use.
I have a wireless USB receiver so I use both a mouse and a keyboard with the
same token.
In `hal-device`, the device for the mouse also has "input.keys" matching
"info.capabilities".
I tried in /etc/hal/fdi/10-x11-input.fdi to <remove> from "info.capabilities"
the "info.keys" from this strlist. It works.
The problem is that in `gnome-device-setup' when I drag the name from the
Virtual Core Pointer it goes only to a keyboard item, and not to the "pointer"
one (its "use" matches IsXExtensionKeyboard instead of IsXExtensionPointer).
The "evdev" device is added/configured via ioctl's and the configuration from
hal seems not to be used (it would say weather it originated from matching
either "input.mouse" xor "input.keys").
This small permutation in evdev.c works for me (it disables `has_keys' in favor
of XI_MOUSE to XI_KEYBOARD):
xf86-input-evdev/src/evdev.c:1341
has_axes = FALSE;
has_keys = FALSE;
num_buttons = 0;
/* count all buttons */
for (i = BTN_MISC; i < BTN_JOYSTICK; i++)
{
if (TestBit(i, key_bitmask))
num_buttons++;
}
if (TestBit(REL_X, rel_bitmask) && TestBit(REL_Y, rel_bitmask) ||
TestBit(ABS_X, abs_bitmask) && TestBit(ABS_Y, abs_bitmask))
has_axes = TRUE;
for (i = 0; i < BTN_MISC; i++)
if (TestBit(i, key_bitmask))
break;
if (i < BTN_MISC)
has_keys = TRUE;
if (has_axes && num_buttons)
has_keys = FALSE;
and the rest is almost identical as from #1352, but no `has_keys' assignment.
Thanks -- S.
