Hello Michael, On 26 Jan, this message from Michael Schmitz echoed through cyberspace: >> Things to check: >> >> - whether Debian's mouseemu indeed has bad define for KEY_UNKOWN >> (from old kernel), > > You bet it has. After all, the new fn keys were added to input.h only > recently, no?
Hmm, KEY_UNKNOWN has been at 240 for quite a while; there was room for more keys before it. Specifically, it has not changed when the last buttons were added, which were the KBD illum keys (added sometime around june 2004). This is in kernel 2.6, so if mouseemu was built against 2.6 headers, then it is unlikely there would be a problem. Now, 2.4 is another story. I just checked 2.4.22 (ok, that one is _old_), and it has KEY_UNKNOWN at 220, _before_ even the ILLUM backlight keys. 2.4.28 also still has it at 220; and I don't expext it to change after that. Now, I have not tried whether mouseemu even builds at all against 2.4 headers, and I have no idea if it is easily possible to have 2.4 headers under /usr/include/ on a reasonably current Debian system. Should there be a build dependancy for mouseemu on 2.6 headers? But on the other hand, I just tried to check what value of KEY_UNKNOWN is compiled into mouseemu-0.15-2, and I seem to have found that it is indeed 240, the correct value. So something else must be different in the 0.15-2 deb vs. my locally compiled version.
