games/C/games.xml:109 keymapping not input devices

[AJenbo]

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

"Features include 9 enemies, 26 playable levels, software and OpenGL rendering modes, configurable joystick and keyboard input"

The string is unclear about what is configurable about the joystick and keybard, it shoud be narrowed down to somthing like keymapping instead of input as that is what the game alowes, this will help with translations.

Hi thank you for taking the time to make ubuntu better.
Firstly is this in ubuntu help and support? I cant find it.
If so can you give the name of the game.

Regards
Shane

Whoops I just saw that you gave the page in the description ill look into it.

[Shane Fagan (shanepatrickfagan)]

I looked and yes it does seem unclear ill write up something to make it better. Thanks for your imput.

[Shane Fagan (shanepatrickfagan)]

Ok I had a look at their website and had a quick chat on irc with them and I think maybe that whole section above should be removed. As its not needed or entirely relevant.

[Dougie Richardson (dougierichardson)]

Do you mean the section on control is unneccessary? If so then you can patch it.

[Shane Fagan (shanepatrickfagan)]

Yep its just completely unnecessary. Ok will patch it.

Uploaded the fix to the ubuntu-karmic docs

[Dougie Richardson (dougierichardson)]

How did you upload it to karmic - you don't have commit access? Also we don't mark it as fix released until Karmic is released - it should be fox committed.

[Shane Fagan (shanepatrickfagan)]

Whoops new to this. Will I put up the diff?

[Dougie Richardson (dougierichardson)]

Hi Shane,

Thanks for the patch it looks good and validates fine so I've applied it and pushed to the Karmic branch.

[Shane Fagan (shanepatrickfagan)]

Thanks Dougie.
