Description Juergen Kreileder 2006-01-20 00:04:39 UTC 
The evdev driver is broken on big-endian machines because the bit fiddling code
doen't handle all peculiarities of the kernel's event interface. I'll attach a fix.

Fix bit fiddling code

Fix bit fiddling code by using macros from Vojtech Pavlik's evtest.c.

7.0 has the same problem.
Comment 3 Zephaniah E. Hull 2006-02-16 10:57:23 UTC 
This bug has been fixed in the new evdev driver in the modular CVS tree.

Reassign to the new evdev maintainer.
