Hi,
All,
I tried couple
places and hope can get some help here.
I try to connect a
USB keyboard device to a mips embedded system.
There is no console
or X Window or any type of the graphic system configured.
All I want to do is
to:
The user can
dynamically connect the USB keyboard to the device. The device will listen
to the key event from the keyboard and response by doing certain
things.
I believe I
successfully configured the USB keyboard. I verified this by put "printk"
at the first line of the function handle_scancode in keyboard.c. Everytime
when I push the key on the keyboard, I see that printk.
However, what I
don't get is how can I get the key event from the kernel? I tried to
listen to all the ttyN, but none of them connect to the keyboard.
I wonder how I can
write a user space application that can get the key event? Could somebody help me out? Because it is an
embedded device, there is no X.
Thanks
John
