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.

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.
