After an entire day of trudging through the kernel sources, I have figured it out. The problem is that console braille support is compiled into the standard kernel (new in 2.6.26), which uses KEY_INSERT to switch between some modes. In the one mode, the braille support uses the arrow keys, page up/down, home and insert. So, in effect the 'insert' key will never work in the console. I'd think that the braille support should be compiled as a module, if possible, or removed until the code is fixed to not break non-braille users.
The corresponding file is drivers/accessibility/braille/braille_console.c And the config option is CONFIG_A11Y_BRAILLE_CONSOLE. nog. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
