Gaming mostly (supertuxkart anyone?), but some others (including myself) want to use it as a movement detection (one exists for the IBM/Lenovo Thinkpads). Digging into platform drivers, I've found that the hdaps and also the lis3lv02d drivers report the axes via polldev, and since I don't want to break userspace, I'm left with two choices: 1 - Keep sysfs entry and adapt it to properly report direction, and no polled device. 2 - Keep sysfs entry and adapt it to properly report direction, and also a polled device. Let me know your decision so I can send an updated patch. > > -- > Darren Hart > Intel Open Source Technology Center Cheers Azael -- -- El mundo apesta y vosotros apestais tambien -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
