The commit commit ab9260c5c70b95779f39069b31646ff5cf8970ad Author: Peter Hutterer <<a href="mailto:peter.hutterer@who-t.net">peter.hutterer@who-t.net</a>> Date: Thu Jan 9 13:12:23 2014 +1000 Drop capability events We don't really support devices changing capabilities at runtime. The kernel has no ability to tell us when this happens on an already-opened device and the few devices that can literally change physical capabilities (e.g. the wiimote) open up extra kernel devices instead of modifying the existing one. Thus, we don't need to notify about devices changing capabilities. Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <<a href="mailto:peter.hutterer@who-t.net">peter.hutterer@who-t.net</a>> was the one removing it, and the documentation might just be a left over from the time before that.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
