It seems silly that kbdcontrol can't rely on up-to-date : headers like most other programs in the system. I think that's likely an excellent idea. However, there are some issues with this. Some large number of items are defined in sys/kbdio.h, which makes it hard to disentangle. A kludge version can be found at http://people.freebsd.org/~imp/kbddump.c. It would be better to make this something that could be built into kbdcontrol, or built stand alone on a host to generate the keyboard .h files. : > Consider the following untested patch: : : If we can't/won't factor out `kbdcontrol -L`, I'll commit this. : Thanks! I knew there had to be a better way than defining an ioctl in : the userland :-). I'd commit this right away while people bikeshed the kbdcontrol :-) Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
