I have a fun little USB device: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Targus-Media-Remote-Control-Card/dp/B000N4JC2U First of all, 75% of it works wonderfully, right out of the box. The Volume and mute keys worked initially and the track, play and stop buttons worked as soon as I configured them in the little gnome keyboard config app. The device shows up as two separate USB devices: one for the top 7 buttons and a separate device for the bottom two. The bottom ones are event9 below and the top ones are event10. lsinput, input-kbd, and input-events output are below. The trouble is with the two keys on the bottom of the remote (event9): fast forward and rewind. They seem to come through as just plain KEY_F and KEY_R. The issue with it is that the keyboard map that comes out only appears to have one entry, and it isn't for either KEY_F or KEY_R. I've played with a few of the userspace event mapping tools, but I haven't yet found one that keeps they 'f' or 'r' from coming out. My next idea was to write a little custom driver or hack up usbhid a bit. Any better ideas out there? lsinput: /dev/input/event9 bustype : BUS_USB vendor : 0x9999 product : 0x200 version : 256 name : "Raytac Corporation Wireless USB " phys : "usb-0000:00:1d.0-2/input0" uniq : "" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_MSC EV_LED EV_REP /dev/input/event10 bustype : BUS_USB vendor : 0x9999 product : 0x200 version : 256 name : "Raytac Corporation Wireless USB " phys : "usb-0000:00:1d.0-2/input1" uniq : "" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_REL EV_ABS EV_MSC root@nimitz:~# input-kbd 9 /dev/input/event9 bustype : BUS_USB vendor : 0x9999 product : 0x200 version : 256 name : "Raytac Corporation Wireless USB " phys : "usb-0000:00:1d.0-2/input0" uniq : "" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_MSC EV_LED EV_REP map: 1 keys, size: 1/64 0x0000 = 29 # KEY_LEFTCTRL root@nimitz:~# input-kbd 10 /dev/input/event10 bustype : BUS_USB vendor : 0x9999 product : 0x200 version : 256 name : "Raytac Corporation Wireless USB " phys : "usb-0000:00:1d.0-2/input1" uniq : "" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_REL EV_ABS EV_MSC map: 1 keys, size: 1/64 0x0000 = 272 # BTN_LEFT root@nimitz:~# input-events 9 /dev/input/event9 bustype : BUS_USB vendor : 0x9999 product : 0x200 version : 256 name : "Raytac Corporation Wireless USB " phys : "usb-0000:00:1d.0-2/input0" uniq : "" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_MSC EV_LED EV_REP waiting for events 11:22:15.934415: EV_MSC code=4 value=458761 11:22:15.934433: EV_KEY KEY_F pressed 11:22:15.934441: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 11:22:15.966377: EV_MSC code=4 value=458761 11:22:15.966390: EV_KEY KEY_F released 11:22:15.966397: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 11:22:17.814404: EV_MSC code=4 value=458773 11:22:17.814422: EV_KEY KEY_R pressed 11:22:17.814429: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 11:22:17.854416: EV_MSC code=4 value=458773 11:22:17.854436: EV_KEY KEY_R released 11:22:17.854443: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 -- Dave -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
