> Would it be worthwhile to make ADB keycodes be available, and not > default? Is there ANY reason not to do this? yes there is a good reason NOT to do this. people should be able to use the debian kernel config as a reference when compiling thier own kernel from pristine sources, if debian goes screwing around with upstream defaults like this people will get a broken locally compiled kernel using the same .config as debian used. that is EVIL. if you want archaic, obsolete adb keycodes compile your own kernel and turn that option on, or use potato. this discussion has already happened for ECN, its already been decided there that screwing with upstream runtime defaults is WRONG, and i agree with them. there is no legitmate reason for not moving to linux keycodes, if you won't then compile your own kernel. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
