Re: Pommed ignores fnmode option in the conf file
Hi Francesco Francesco Pedrini [Mon, Jul 21, 2008 at 02:53:17PM +0200]: i'm having some problems with pommed on an ibook g4 2005, it seems that he can't use the fn+functionkey working right. Can't say anything about pommed, but I'm also having an ibook g4 and I'm running pbbuttonsd on it. My fn keys work the way you want it. Maybe you should give pbbuttonsd a try (or can pommed do anything pbbuttonsd can't?).

I've to press fn+functionkey in order to get the normal fn values (fn+f1 - f1, fn+f2- f2) and it is not the behaviour that i want, i want to press the fn key ONLY when i want to trigger the special control (brightness, sound and eject keys) I've tried both with fnmode = 1 and fnmode = 2 but nothing changes... Also, and that is really strange, the key are fully functional (with the wrong behaviour) even when pommed is stopped, this leads me to think that it's not only a bug of pommed, i think that there are other parts of the system that are involved in this stuff. Does anybody has an hint? in /etc/pbbuttonsd.conf look for the line KBDmode just change to fkeyslast.

Hmmm, if this machine still has an ADB keyboard (vs. USB), then you cannot change the Fn behaviour. It's only possible on USB keyboards. Check your logs or stop pommed and run pommed -f and you should see an error message.

If only the backlight keys work, then they're handled by the kernel on its own. If other keys work too, then something else is running, either pbbuttonsd or some GNOME stuff via HAL.

The LMU error is expected on this machine and harmless. It's related to the keyboard backlight (which you don't have). Also there's no error message because the USB HID module is loaded on your machine, so the path exists. I used to run a kernel with ADB only on my PowerBook :-) There is anything that i can try without switching back to pbbuttonsd? Some sort of experimental patch or things like that, it should not be impossible since pbbuttonsd does that... i'll offer cputime and tests :D Indeed I've overlooked a chunk of code in pbbuttonsd at the time the pmac support was added to pommed :) I'll prepare a patch and I'll send it to you for testing. Should be tomorrow or sometime this week.
