swap ctrl<->caps lock problem
Hi, while trying to map caps lock as ctrl on my 12" powerbook I noticed that the keypress and release events don't seem to work as expected. While e.g. alt generates the "KeyPress-Event" when pushing down the key and the KeyRelease-Event when letting it go "caps lock" seems to generate the events differently: - it generates KeyPress+KeyRelease when pushing down the key and the LED was off - it generates KeyPress+KeyRelease when releasing the key and the LED was on Using showkey on the console confirms this behaviour. This seems to caused by /* * adb kludge!! Imitate pc caps lock behaviour by * generating an up/down event for each time caps * is pressed/released. Also, makes sure that the * LED are handled. [EMAIL PROTECTED] */ case 0x39: handle_scancode(0x39, 1); handle_scancode(0x39, 0); tasklet_schedule(&keyboard_tasklet); return; in mac_keyb.c.

Hi, the attached patch allows to toggle the backlight via "fblevel on/off" on a 12" pbook on and off. It registers a full backlight control although it can't handle brightness at the moment. Patch is against 2.4.22-ben2. Many thanks to Mark Vojkovich for providing the necessary information.

The trailers you are watching uses a different audio codec (which we found out in private mail, thanks Soeren).

[patch] PowerBook 6,1: headphone not detected after suspend
Hi, ever since suspend to disk works I had the problem that headphone (un)plugging doesn't get detected properly anymore after the first resume. Reloading the module worked around this ever since, however the real cause of the problem was that after a resume the driver only got interrupts on "unplug" not on "plug". Reactivating the headphone status interrupt in tumbler_resume fixes this. This shouldn't cause any trouble with software suspend, but it would be nice if somebody could confirm this: --- orig/linux-2.6.14/sound/ppc/tumbler.c 2005-10-28 02:02:08.0 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.14/sound/ppc/tumbler.c2005-11-14 12:01:13.0 +0100 @@ -1194,8 +1195,14 @@ tumbler_set_master_volume(mix); if (chip->update_automute) chip->update_automute(chip, 0); - if (mix->headphone_irq >= 0) + if (mix->headphone_irq >= 0) { + unsigned char val; + enable_irq(mix->headphone_irq); + /* activate headphone status interrupts */ + val = do_gpio_read(&mix->hp_detect); + do_gpio_write(&mix->hp_detect, val | 0x80); + } if (mix->lineout_irq >= 0) enable_irq(mix->lineout_irq); } Signed-off-by: Guido Guenther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cheers, -- Guido -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Rivafb is working quiet on NV17, NV3X although it's been mostly replaced by nvidiafb these days.

You can mostly avoid scattering self build XFree86 files over your filesystem by building a static server, just add: "#define DoLoadableServer NO" in xc/config/cf/host.def. All you have to do is to copy xc/programs/Xserver/XFree86 to an appropriate location then. I needed a few small patches to work around endianess problems(e.g. swapped colors in Xv,...).

Once offb has control why should it handover things to rivafb, this is expected behaviour I think. In the other case with offb:off, when there's no fb at all I think rivafb should be able to "take over". > I'm trying to recompile kernel-image-2.6.10 with CONFIG_RIVAFB=y and if it > works > I will filed a bug.

Well, backlight support is in rivafb since quiet some time but only 2.6.10 has everything to get rivafb to work at all on newer powerbooks (NV30 based).
