Description Juergen Kreileder 2006-01-20 00:04:39 UTC

The evdev driver is broken on big-endian machines because the bit fiddling code
doen't handle all peculiarities of the kernel's event interface. I'll attach a fix.

Fix bit fiddling code

Fix bit fiddling code by using macros from Vojtech Pavlik's evtest.c.

Comment 2 Juergen Kreileder 2006-01-21 20:32:11 UTC

7.0 has the same problem.

Comment 3 Zephaniah E. Hull 2006-02-16 10:57:23 UTC

This bug has been fixed in the new evdev driver in the modular CVS tree.

Comment 4 Zephaniah E. Hull 2006-02-16 11:02:41 UTC

Reassign to the new evdev maintainer.
