Hello, I have a beagleboard rev c3 with 6 gpio buttons. The kernel is recognizing the buttons but I can't seem to figure out how to get Android to recognize and associate the buttons with the KEY_MENU and KEY_BACK events (the other 4 are not being used at this time).
According to http://www.kandroid.org/android_pdk/keymaps_keyboard_input.html, I need to create a keylayout map and a keychars map file which I have a gpio-keys.kl and gpio-keys.kcm (although a *.kcm.bin is created). My problem seems to be that the qwerty.kl is the default regardless to my changes and I'm unsure how to go about changing...any guidance would be great. Thanks. log file results I/EventHub( 788): New keyboard: publicID=65539 device->id=65539 devname='gpio-keys' propName='hw.keyboards.65539.devname' keylayout='/system/usr/keylayout/ qwerty.kl' results of my build in the current directory... ... for a hardware target is generic.
