When starting evtest with kernel 2.6.27-rc1+, the following
message appears in dmesg:
| evdev.c(EVIOCGBIT): Suspicious buffer size 511, limiting output to 64 bytes.
See http://userweb.kernel.org/~dtor/eviocgbit-bug.html
The following patch fixes the issue. Btw: Upstream homepage
(http://linuxconsole.sourceforge.net/) is dead.
