Well, then what I'm doing is extreemly wrong. But if I do it any other way I get
a segfault. On the console I must do this to get anything to work:

        giiInit();
        kbd=giiOpen("input-linux-kbd",NULL);
        if (kbd==NULL) {
                fprintf(stderr, "Error getting keyboard, bailing out...");
                exit(1);
        }

In X I must also do something simmilar, or segfault. I got my last package on the
7th of this month.
