reverse CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT default
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Sigh.  Again an ACPI assault on the Thinkpad's Fn+F4 to suspend to RAM.
The default and text for CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED were fixed
in -rc3, but now commit 14e04fb ("ACPI:
Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal") introduces the ACPI_PROC_EVENT
config entry, and defaults it to 'n' to disable it again.

Change default to y, and add comment to make it clearer that n is for
future distros.

A user-space daemon, acpi, typically read /proc/acpi/event
and handled all ACPI sub-system generated events.

These events are now delivered to user-space via
either the input layer, or as netlink events.

be moved under CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS, and then deleted.

Say Y here to retain the old behaviour. Say N if your
user-space is newer than kernel 2.6.23 (September 2007).
