Can you please start everything as you would do normally and just kill the process hald-addmoin-acpi-buttons-toshiba? Then, you should see FnFX getting all events, not just a few. > I heard something like this. Is this FIFO a normal FIFO akin to the > ones generated by mkfifo(1)? No. It is just that the kernel interface is implementing the event interface as such. Thus, if you have more than one process using the interface you will see that one process gets event A, the other process event B and event C (just as an example). It's racy, there should not be more than one process at a time reading from the event interface of the Toshiba ACPI driver.
