Hi Ahmed, No cigar yet sadly. Installed as instructed and ran command. Below is screen dump of pressing a few keys etc and going back to command prompt: ---------------------------------------------- Setting up evtest (20051019-9) ... r...@stuart-laptop:/home/stuart# sudo evtest /dev/input/event8 > ~/evtest ghnm,^[[A^[[B^[[C^[[D ^X ^X^C r...@stuart-laptop:/home/stuart# -------------------------------------------
Sadly, there was no file output to my home directory called "evtest". Please advise.
