This means that after several suspend/resume cycles (in which it seems all usb devices are virtually unplugged and replugged) the kernel is out of event devices and complains likewise. My nice little program that catches specific keystrokes also stops to get any interesting events from that moment on. After reboot everything works again as expected.
this is very likely bug in HAL -- please see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=344872
Negative ;-)A few moments ago I rebooted with HAL disabled and without going into X. I unplugged the hub that has the mouse and keyboard attached and plugged it back in again, a few times. Once again every time higher event handlers were assigned.
