Where do come from the numbers used in the two scripts you showed? I suppose there’s a code for each XFree86 keysym, right?
IIRC, it's just a linear function of the keysym: there is a difference by about 80
Ok… any example anywhere? like a wiki page?
Talking about /sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi: do you have the file “hotkey_tablet_mode”? I need it to detect when the screen is turned in tablet mode so that I can automatically rotate the screen. Do it need to be implemented in coreboot too?
No, this is due to missing DSDT entries in coreboot that thinkpad-acpi uses:
2058 static int hotkey_get_tablet_mode(int *status) 2059 { 2060 int s; 2061 2062 if (!acpi_evalf(hkey_handle, &s, "MHKG", "d")) 2063 return -EIO; 2064 2065 *status = ((s & TP_HOTKEY_TABLET_MASK) != 0); 2066 return 0; 2067 }
However, with the latest patch from φcoder, you should have the ACPI events directly
Ok, so just upgrade should fix it right?
Fn+F6 and F8 show up in cat /dev/input/event4,
Not here.
More problematic, Fn+F10, Fn+insert, Fn+delete are dead as can be - regardless of the /sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/hotkey_mask
Yeah, that’s the problem.
According to http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_get_special_keys_to_work#Triggering_key_events:
By disassembling and editing the DSDT, more events can be added. HKEY events are triggered by calls to the MKHQ function, e.g. _SB.PCI0.LPC.EC.HKEY.MHKQ(0×1007) will trigger "ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001007". Most of these can be found in _Qxx methods within the DSDT, which are executed on embedded controller events, e.g. _Q10 is triggered by pressing Fn-F7. You can add a call to MKHQ into an existing _Qxx method to get it recognized by thinkpad-acpi as well as creating new _Qxx methods, which if you're lucky will correspond to an EC event that IBM never used (e.g. A 770 will send Fn-Home/End/PgUp/PgDn to thinkpad-acpi if hacked in this fashion). For example, this is a modified block of DSDT for a G40 http://www.wormnet.eu/ibm-g40/morebuttons.dsl.
My best idea at the moment is that the EC gives different Q codes than those in the DSDT for the keys that do not generate ACPI events.
What’s a DSDT? I’m not sure of what’s HKEY, and I’m sure I don’t understand what’s MKHQ, _Qxx, Q code, EC and G40.
Yet in src/ec/lenovo/h8/acpi/ec.asl, I do see Fn+10, Fn+Insert, Fn+Delete and also Fn+Backspace, ie everything has been added, but thinkpad-acpi shows nothing in /dev/input/event4 Am I missing something?
Even Fn+Insert and Delete? :D /me’s wondering if maybe the trick Fn+<numpad> would be possible with some hack…
PS: Do you have a PGP key?
I do, but for public communication (ex: mailing list) I don't use it.
Even for signature?
