but it gives me a ton of gibberish. I just want to be able to read
simple keystrokes, all of which will be numeric. I am trying to use this
for a headless remote control system. I have tried with evtest which is
better than the raw data, but still will take tons of parsing. I am
thinking a keylogger would work, but I bet there is a better solution.
