Two different things to consider here: linux keycodes and i386 keymap. Both have the potential to screw up ;-) Before playing with these things, it is best to get some remote (ssh, telnet or other) connection working, and manipulate things from there. > Is it possible to pass the kernel the argument > "keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes=0" ? No; this setting is not kept over reboots. You either have to apply it manually after every boot (bad); add some script (better) or add it to /etc/sysctl.conf (best). So, to get back to ADB keycodes, just reboot. > To echo 0 >/target/proc/........... when booting with cd isn't possible > ether, because the directory proc is empty. Not necessary, as explained above. In general, nothing under /proc survives a reboot. That's just a virtual filesystem exposing some kernel configuration and data structures. The keymap setting might be different: if you changed that with the apropriate tools, its setting sticks ;-) You'll have to experiment a bit to re-change this...
