Ah, now I see. The problem is that in pre-2.6.20-rc1 the pb_fnmode was setting global variable, but after the HID layer rework, this is a per-hid variable, which is of course not updated when write to sysfs triggers. I will try to fix this before I send 2.6.20-rc6 updates to Linus, thanks for pointing this out. -- Jiri Kosina - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
