[Bug 328989] Re: This package should be removed

[Darren Salt]

The volume control buttons are entirely handled in-kernel? Video output
selection is handled entirely in-kernel? Launching a task manager (or
top in a terminal window or on the console) is handled entirely in-
kernel?

Also, HAL is deprecated. It'll take a while before it goes away
completely, though the process is very definitely under way; code is
being adapted to use libudev. (You lot will see X evdev using this in
10.4, if you've not seen it already, and I've adapted gxine to use it
where available.)

And we have oddness with (at least) one event being reported for two
different keys on two different models, as well as *different* events
for the same two keys (depending on the kernel etc.; exact circumstances
are not yet determined, but if you have any useful input, debian-eeepc-
devel at l.a.d.o awaits).

eeepc-acpi-scripts – or whatever is used instead, if it's to properly
handle EeePC-specific stuff – needs to cope with this kind of thing. (I
happen to be working on this particular problem; it'll probably be fixed
in 1.1.5.)

It would be better if you help us (Debian EeePC devs) make this work
alongside acpi-support.
