Thanks. So it seems the MS keyboard indeed is like two input devices in one, one for the normal keys, one for the hotkeys. This is very similar to Sony or Thinkpad modules, which also have a separate "input module" for their hotkeys. The input-events output for device 3 looks fine. The EV_MSC ones are MSC_SCAN events (for the scan code), which also happen on normal keys, also on my system. I don't see any EV_BTN. I don't see any EV_KEY BTN_* events on this device, and input_id also doesn't say that it's a mouse, so it looks correct from the kernel and udev perspective.
Chris, any idea what causes the xorg evdev driver to think that this device is a mouse?
