Hi, In a previous post (http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg/2014-October/056903.html) I mentioned problems with intercepting uinput events in an X client as non-extension events. I was not able to solve this problem. Hence I decided writing an X-input driver module using the howto from http://www.x.org/wiki/Development/Documentation/XorgInputHOWTO/ as starting point. I modified the sample, installed it (output from make install: ... libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c .libs/smiths-kbd_drv.so /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/input/smiths-kbd_drv.so libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c .libs/smiths-kbd_drv.lai /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/input/smiths-kbd_drv.la .. ), modified my xorg.conf: Section "InputDevice" # to enable user defined virtual keyboard Identifier "Hitrax-KBD" Option "Device" "/dev/sh-kbd" Driver "smiths-kbd" EndSection
When I start writing to the device my driver won't get loaded, instead evdev is used. xorg log: [ 4680.681] (II) config/udev: Adding input device sh-kbd (/dev/input/event14) [ 4680.681] (**) sh-kbd: Applying InputClass "evdev keyboard catchall" [ 4680.681] (II) Using input driver 'evdev' for 'sh-kbd' [ 4680.681] (**) sh-kbd: always reports core events [ 4680.681] (**) evdev: sh-kbd: Device: "/dev/input/event14" [ 4680.681] (--) evdev: sh-kbd: Vendor 0x1 Product 0x1 [ 4680.681] (--) evdev: sh-kbd: Found keys [ 4680.682] (II) evdev: sh-kbd: Configuring as keyboard [ 4680.682] (**) Option "config_info" "udev:/sys/devices/virtual/input/input20/event14" [ 4680.682] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "sh-kbd" (type: KEYBOARD, id 15) [ 4680.682] (**) Option "xkb_rules" "evdev" [ 4680.682] (**) Option "xkb_model" "pc105" [ 4680.682] (**) Option "xkb_layout" "de" Note that with the following device option Option "Device" "/dev/input/event14" I get the same failure log Thanks in advance for any help...
