Stew, what sources are you using to build mol-0.9.68-3mdk.ppc.rpm (and
-2mdk and kmods for benh-7mdk and benh-9mdk)? I'm having a problem with
it that its author Samuel Rydh says has been fixed in the release
0.9.68 version (keyboard behaving as if keys were still down after
releasing them in Mac OS X, see
http://lists.maconlinux.org/pipermail/mol-general/2003-March/
001368.html).
Saw that post. It's the tarball Samuel announced, I think.
My original idea was trying to compile the release 0.9.68 myself, but I
can't do that because I don't have the kernel headers for benh-9mdk in
/usr/src/linux/include. I've looked at kernel-benh-2.4.20-9mdk.src.rpm,
but it doesn't look to me as if I could easily get these headers out of
it (Do all these patches have to be applied? The README says something
about not placing stuff in /usr/src/linux... is that applicable? I
don't have anything in /usr/src/linux.).
If you build kernel-benh from the source rpm, and then leave the tree in
your rpm/BUILD dir, the mol-kmods-benh should build against that. That is
how I've been doing it, since I'm not shipping kernel-benh source or
headers. All the appropriate srpms should be on my web space.
If you do make any progress with the OS/X keyboard issue, I'd like to hear
about it. I don't have OS/X myself to test it.
