Description Samuel Thibault 2007-05-16 23:29:08 UTC 
Description of problem:
Default handlers (like the brltty daemon) don't work anymore with version 1.20 of gpm.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.20

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. run brltty -b no -l 7 -n -e -x lx

Actual results:
notice the GPM errors about "Inappropriate ioctl for device"

Expected results:
There shouldn't be such error

Additional info:
This is because in Gpm_Open(), the flag<0 case isn't even treated in any particular way any more since version 1.20. The attached patch should fix that.

patch for version 1.20.1

Oops, sorry, the attached patch was for version 1.20.2-broken. This one is for
1.20.1.
Comment 3 Tomas Janousek 2007-05-23 13:26:57 UTC 
Ok, applied. I have the builds ready for f5/6/7/8, but will wait with the update
for the release of F7 and availability of the update system.
