The bug is incorrect. That's not an eject button, it's a dock eject 
request button.

acpi-support patches for Ubuntu hardy that need your attention

2008-02-29 Thread Jerone Young
There is a round up of acpi-support patches that are waiting to go
into hardy. You are listed as the maintainer of acpi-support. The
launchpad bugzilla is here and it is a milestone for hardy Alpha-6 ..

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/194609


This is a patch of all the patches that have been tested and worked
that are in launchpad and really really really need to go into Hardy.
Could you please take a look at it and at least make a comment or
sponsor the patch and commit it.

Thanks,
 Jerone

Whoops I sent the wrong bug!

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/193842

As for the other bug that I sent. That button plays a dual role (at
least under windows). It can eject the cdrom or eject you from the
docking station. Since we do not have a nice applet to give this
choice .. it's best to just eject the CDROM.

Re: acpi-support patches for Ubuntu hardy that need your attention

2008-02-29 Thread Jerone Young
These hotkeys are not kernel bugs. The kernel sends the acpi events
for these keys. We have these fixes and they are tested. We just need
them to go into Ubuntu.

As fro the pm-utils part..this may be for the suspend patches. But
nobody is looking at a single bug or fix for acpi-support. Took users
to round up patches and try to get them into hardy.

What shocks me is how NOBODY is looking at a sinlge acpi-support bug.
While this bug has been marked as a Hardy Alpha-6 milestone .. we
cannot get one person to sponsor it as there appears to be NOBODY who
is maintaing acpi-support anymore. There are still a lot more fixes
even after these for different platforms .. the Asus EEPC stuff sits
outside of Ubuntu (I recently noticed it on the new brainstorm site)
... because of stuff like this. They have scripts for acpi-support ..
but nobody wants to go through the hell to try to get them included.

What has to be done to get this set of scripts included.

 A number of these bugs are irrelevant for hardy, since the move to
  pm-utils. The lack of hotkeys_over_acpi is a kernel bug that's happened
  in almost every release I can remember, and I'm bored of asking the
  kernel team to ensure that patches don't get dropped between releases
  and being told it won't happen again.
