Re: Using /dev/input/event*

[Jonathan I. <je...@gm...>]

a utility i just found:
<http://www.cynapses.org/tmp/lomoco/evdev-key-btn-test.c>
gcc -o evdev-key-btn-test evdev-key-btn-test.c
will print out the codes for an lircd.conf

ex.
  Key  0x4f  (KeyPad 1)

in lircd.conf

 begin codes

          KP1                      0x004F

end codes
