Keyboard

Post by salil_bhagurkar »

My keyboard code is from Chris Geeze's os... The numlock key duznt seem to correctly work... Its detected but the led duznt toggle correctly...

The keymap duznt work on a ibm laptop i tried... The laptop duznt have a separate set of number keys on right as we have on desktops...

How do i go about this problem?

It "duznt" work eh? :lol:

Sorry :P - (It's "doesn't" last time I checked.. :roll:)

Anyway, There are a lot of example kernels out there, It shouldn't be hard to work out how to support keyboard LED's.

Uhg, at least it's legible. I've read posts on other forums that were barely English.

You need to create a special keymap. You cannot use the same keymap for different keyboards. If you understand the code you took from "Chris Geeze's os" you should be able to create a new keymap ... if you don't , you should try either to understand it or to create your own keyboard code ...
