[Jean-Daniel P. <jd...@di...>]

    by mistake I reversed the order of files in the previous post,
    here's the correct patch :

    yes, I posted it here just a few days ago.
    you can now have it here :

    I'll also try to bring some clear instructions about faketty soon.

=2D fix 2.6.15 compile issues
=2D module and service have separate install commands

http://www.ltn.lv/~aivils/files/faketty-0.05.tar.bz2

Unfortunately LED switch patch does not go into Linus tree
because of silly objection. May be X guys will request that
feature and then Andrew Morton applay it. If you use evdev
of X, then you have same trouble of LEDs.

I generally only skim this list, could you please provide more details
on the problem, and a link to the patch in question?

Thank you.

Patch fix case , when 1st X uses old tty layer and 2nd (3rd...) X uses
evdev driver. Without patch 1st X via tty switch LED's of all
connected keyboards.

We cannot sync back keyboard mapping, rate, LED state after "ungrab".
I cannot understand view point of Dmitry Torokhov. Someone realy get
sick if ungrabing became "hooked".
