It just needs to know what device to point at ( /dev/input/event1, /dev/input/event2, etc. ) and which keys you want to trigger it.


I'm still working on one that would support hot-swapping, but I've been distracted by World of Warcraft's Legion invasion.

It still needs the hid.ko and everything from the starg-otg.sh scripts, but it would replace the './mouseturn $(./config.sh) &' line, with one that points at your device and button configurations.
you are right, hid.ko is magic :-)

What I am trying to do is get the keyboard to function as a keyboard, ideally in xterm (though elsewhere would be fine as well.)

I initially attempted to change my /etc/xorg.conf
Code:
#mount -o bind /mnt/us/Projects/Xorg.conf /etc/xorg.conf
to simply add the keyboard as in input device and then restart the xserver. Unfortunately
Code:
#killall -s KILL Xorg
rebooted the framework entirely, which seemed to shunt my bind into some sort of a FUSE state over on /var/local/xorg.conf ?

I'll keep poking around, but I can understand why the Orcs are more important. ;-)
