Adding external USB HID Keyboard
Mathieu Malaterre
I am wondering if anyone has ever tried to plug in an external
keyboard type to a debian linux box. I know this sound silly but I
really cannot get anything to work.
Steps:
1. According to dmesg I have:
<...>
usb 5-2: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
usb 5-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
input: Weltrend USB KEYPAD CALCULATOR as /class/input/input3
input: USB HID v1.10 Keyboard [Weltrend USB KEYPAD CALCULATOR] on
usb-0000:00:1d.3-2
2. I then check if they were correctly recognized:
$ cat /proc/bus/input/devices
<...>
I: Bus=0003 Vendor=040b Product=6513 Version=0305
N: Name="Weltrend USB KEYPAD CALCULATOR"
P: Phys=usb-0000:00:1d.3-2/input0
S: Sysfs=/class/input/input3
H: Handlers=kbd event3
B: EV=120003
B: KEY=10000 7 ff87207a c14057ff febeffdf ffefffff ffffffff fffffffe
B: LED=7
3. Following FAQ on http://kerneltrap.org/node/2199
I try the evtest command (but it looks like the wrong keymap is being used)
$ sudo evtest /dev/input/event3
Input driver version is 1.0.0
Input device ID: bus 0x3 vendor 0x40b product 0x6513 version 0x305
Input device name: "Weltrend USB KEYPAD CALCULATOR"
