I would think so!
The patch that fixed the issue with the key release events was this - I submitted it to Alan who then put it into ac and then it went into 2.4.x...
Details: http://www.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~leibl/lol/
Patch excerpt:
+ /* The following 'if' is a workaround for hardware + * which sometimes send the key release event twice */ + unsigned char next_scancode = scancode|up_flag; + if (up_flag && next_scancode==prev_scancode) { + /* unexpected 2nd release event */ + } else { + prev_scancode=next_scancode; + put_queue(next_scancode); + }
I haven't checked if 2.6.0 already has this!
