<pre>Can you please explain this in some more detail?
(In reply to <a href="show_bug.cgi?id=78408#c0">comment #0</a>)
<span class="quote">> I was expecting the following two mappings to behave the same way:
>
> keyboard:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svn*:pn*:pvr*
> KEYBOARD_KEY_3a=leftctrl
>
> keyboard:usb:v*p*
> KEYBOARD_KEY_70039=leftctrl</span >
Those would apply to different devices and different keys, so in which sense
should they behave the same?
<span class="quote">> However, the USB mapping will only work if the existing key is remapped, e.g.
>
> keyboard:usb:v*p*
> KEYBOARD_KEY_70039=leftctrl
> KEYBOARD_KEY_700e0=capslock
>
> It looks like the behaviour for USB keyboards is a bug.</span >
So what are you trying to do there, and what is the original assignment from
the kernel? Do you mean you can't assign multiple scan codes to the same key
code for USB devices?
Thanks!</pre>
