OK, since what you are describing is impossible with the version of
drivers/input/keybdev.c I have (from the bitkeeper linuxppc tree), I had
a look at the version supplied with the "official" 2.4.0test9.
That's a really weird one, and the word "crap" you used seems justified:
The function emulate_raw is used without any ifs, but its definition
some lines earlier is enclosed in either
#if defined(CONFIG_X86) || defined(CONFIG_IA64) || defined(__alpha__) ||
defined(__mips__)
or
#elif defined(CONFIG_ADB_KEYBOARD)
So in your case you would need to put CONFIG_ADB_KEYBOARD=y into your
.config file. Or change these weird #ifs.
The bitkeeper version of the file is somewhat better in that it uses
only one set of conditionals,
#if defined(CONFIG_X86) || defined(CONFIG_IA64) || defined(__alpha__) ||
defined (__mips__) || defined(CONFIG_PPC)
but the function is still used without any condition.
