Subject: KEYBOARDS: Why /dev/hiddev* is disabled for keyboards
Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2008 06:14:31 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200808110614.31887.aivils@latnet.lv> (raw)
Hi All!
I work for project which will use 15 - 25 keyboards for children teaching.
Current version of software uses /dev/input/evdevXX interface, which
is allways crowded and reach maximum allowed 32 device files
very fast - 12 keyboards for ordinary laptop PC.
I take a look into /dev/hiddev* code, which have similar protocol
like evdev, but is disabled for keyboards.
WHY?
