As I understand the USB HID input system (in the 2.4 kernel), input.o is
the module that passes input events from producer modules to consumer
modules. ...
The Feb and March 2003 issues of Linux Journal may help you here - there is a 
diagram that does a good job of fitting it together (IMNSHO :)

Thanks.  I'm a subscriber so I'll check it out.

        ... it would be nice if there were a module somewhere that
would enable me to produce keyboard and mouse events with my user space
program and pass them into the input.o module so that they look like
keyboard key presses/releases and mouse motion and button
presses/releases to the operating system...
   

drivers/input/misc/uinput.c is probably what you want.  ...
 

Unfortunately, doing a "find" through the source code does't turn up the 
"uinput.c" module.  Any other suggestions?
