Title: Why Doesn't /dev/input/event0 Work?
Post by: DrWowe on December 21, 2005, 05:57:21 pm

root:~# ls -l /dev/input/event0
crw-rw-rw-    1 root     root      13,  64 Feb 17  2004 /dev/input/event0

root:~# modprobe evdev

root:~# lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
evdev                   3568   0  (unused)
...

root:~# cat /dev/input/event0
cat: /dev/input/event0: No such device


What's the deal?  How do I use the evdev module?  I figured inserting the module would be enough, but I'm clearly missing something.

BTW, what I'm ultimately trying to do is inject scancodes into the keyboard.
