Adding the keyboard (mailboard) support
Hi, I have managed to refresh Matt's Amstrad Delta keyboard patch, created against linux-omap-2.6.16-omap2. Now it applies cleanly on top of curent linux-omap for-next, and seems to work flawlessly. I have also made some modifications in order to avoid breaking support for the hook switch that has been added recently (thanks to what you discovered about it a few years ago). Matt (I hope you still read the e3-hacking list), don't you mind if I submit the modified patch to the linux-omap mailing list in order to get it included in the linux-omap tree first and then pushed into the mainline? Jonathan, can you remember why the keyboard patch never found it's way into the linux-omap tree? If you know of any isues with it, I could try to solve them before submitting. Thanks, Janusz

My memory of it is that the issue was only when it was used with the hook switch and I didn't push it towards the linux-omap tree as I'd done nothing in terms of the patch creation. I don't remember any objections to it. J. -- Web [ Is this real - that's the first thing I think every morning. ] site: http:// [ ] Made by www.earth.li/~noodles/ [ ] HuggieTag 0.0.24

Good. I'll wait a little bit more for Matt if he is still there and submit the patch then. Thanks, Janusz

Hi Janusz, Glad to see someone still hacking the e3. I must dust mine off and try the latest stuff. I'm happy for you to submit a modified keyboard patch. Matt

Hi Matt, Glad to hear from you. Thank you for your past efforts, I think those were worth of putting into the l-o tree. I hope I can manage to get them integrated. Thanks, Janusz
