7 b. delete a event based hotkey(event):
8 echo "1:::::num:num" > event_config
9
10 c. modify a event based hotkey(event):
11 echo "2:bus::action:method:num:num" > event_config
12
13 2. /proc/acpi/hotkey/poll_config
14 (polling based hotkey or event config interface):
15 a.add a polling based hotkey(event) :
16 echo "0:bus:method:action:method:num" > poll_config
17 this adding command will create a proc file
