Does anyone know if /dev/misc/uinput is broken in the 2.4.27 ts kernel?
I'm trying to use a keypad that feeds into the standard input layer.
I've recompiled the kernel for uinput and keybdev support, and the
modules are loading fine. The /dev/misc/uinput device appears
automagically as it should once the modules are loaded.
strace says the device is opening fine, chars are being written to it,
but *nothing* appears on stdio....
I've used kbdd before on i386 systems and I know it pretty much works
automagically; there's not much to the code.
I need to get this working; I'm sort of hanging my hat on using the
/dev/uinput layer for the user interface, and if I have to code
multiple device handling into the userspace app things will get very
complicated and ugly....
You can check out the real (i.e. working) kbdd at
http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/kbdd ; I've posted my code at
http://www.seiner.com/ts7000/keypad and
http://www.seiner.com/ts7000/kbdd . (Very much non-functioning ugly
code right now.... But help/suggestions/etc welcome.)
Thanks,
