| alan_g | anpok: do we ever want multiple input modules? (I'm wondering if probe_input_platforms() must return a collection - things are simpler if there can be only one.) | 11:29 |
|---|---|---|
| anpok | alan_g: hm at some point I thought it would be useful.. but at the moment it is rather causing troubles when both x11 and evdev are in use.. | 12:00 |
| anpok | in other words there is currently no use case for it | 12:00 |
| anpok | alan_g: by changing that you would avoid this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mir/+bug/1528110 | 12:01 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1528110 in Mir "Mir On X (mesa-x11) keeps receiving mouse movement events even when not focused" [Medium,Triaged] | 12:01 |
| anpok | which only happens when you run as root from an x11 terminal.. | 12:02 |
| alan_g | anpok: and it would greatly simplify addressing the issue Chris and I have been discussing in https://code.launchpad.net/~alan-griffiths/mir/fix-1543049/+merge/287644 | 12:02 |
| alan_g | Would the hypothetical "useful" scenaro be better addressed by an input module that "talked" to multiple drivers underneath? | 12:04 |
| anpok | alan_g: I think just changing the code to yield a single result is fine untill we find a use case in which it would be "useful" - | 12:08 |
| anpok | or actually the use case was for unity8 to inject user input.. | 12:09 |
| anpok | but they just changed the setup.. | 12:09 |
| anpok | and they are currently allowed to use uinput to inject it there.. | 12:10 |
| anpok | then again .. there are various places were we could allow input injection.. | 12:10 |
| alan_g | Multiple "platforms" isn't how I'd support injection. Weird devices that use strange drivers mixed with normal ones, maybe, if that actually happens and matters. | 12:19 |
