[Gpe-list] [PATCH] Support common buttonmap for HH.org-maintained devices

[Paul Sokolovsky]

Hello gpe-list,

      Since the version of 2.6.16-hh8, most HandHelds.org-maintained
PDA-design (vs XDA, phone, etc.) devices switched to use common
button keycode map. This allows to overcome issues we previously had
with application buttons not working from a device to device, power
button not working, etc.

      The change affects following devices supported by GPE: h1910,
h2200, h4000, hx4700, asus716. Moreover, it allows to add support for
new devices more easily, and it will "just work" (new devices
belonging to already supported PDA families like HP iPaq and Asus
MyPal, will simply work out of the box).

      The patch has been in testing since August, and by now has
proven to work as expected. It is also committed to OpenEmbedded
(org.openembedded.dev branch).

      So, I would like to ask it to be merged into GPE mainline. The
change affects xserver-common.
