1. Could you please stop top-posting
2. man errno; man strerror
3. I wonder what was the return value from write() and what is
sizeof(struct inptu_event) on your system.
4. Please do take care when describing your problem. In your original
email you said that "... the uinput device fails to open".
5. Is it system with 64 bit kernel and 32 bit userspace by any chance?
Thanks.
