You are invited to consider what numeric value setting > bit 0 actually gives you... :-) Setting bit 0 gives a numeric value of 0x1. Yes? The man page says that "This option prevents the driver from being installed" if a keyboard is not actually attached to the system at bootup time. The OP wanted to ensure that his keyboard would work if plugged in later. According to the manpage, then, he would need to set this flag to 0x0 (or at least, any value with the LSB set to 0, i.e. any even value) According to someone else, it's necessary to set hint.atkbd.0.flags="0x1" Therefore, I perceive a conflict in information. If I'm overlooking something, can you please point it out to me? Thanks, Brian.Received on Mon Feb 20 2006 - 14:08:50 UTC
