[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#717398: [PATCH] Improve acpi_fakekeyd

David Härdeman david at hardeman.nu
Sat Jan 4 22:36:13 UTC 2014


Add socket activation and lazy opening of /dev/uinput which makes
acpi_fakekeyd both more robust and helps speed up boot (by avoiding
sleeping in the init script).

An added benefit of the systemd socket activation is that the daemon
is never actually started on systems (like my laptop) where the "extra"
keys don't actually generate ACPI events.
