Hello,
 
I got the solution for Linux. Now how to do it using Qt ?
 
Actually I tried xinput as mentioned in the article :->
https://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/542356-weekend-project-zap-your-coworkers-minds-with-multi-pointer-x
 
I got two pointers for two mouse and two keyboards as master. I opened two 
terminals and was able to type on both of them using different keyboards.
 
Now the problem is that How to give support of using two different keboards in 
one Qt application. 
I can use them in two different processes without any problem, but how to use 
them in one single process ?

Can any-body help ?

Ahh!!
 
May be, I got it !! First I have to distigish the two keyboards, then-only I 
can proceed to the main problem (if it remains). 
 
Thanks Atlant ! 
I will get back to this thread after trying the above suggestion !

Navneet:
 

  This sounds like a Linux problem rather than a Qt problem.


  Isn’t it the Linux Keyboard Driver that’s effectively “pairing”
  the keyboards? That is, by the time Qt gets the I/O, the
  input from the two keyboards is already deliberately
  indistinguishable.

  There’s probably already some Linux setup parameter
  somewhere that can un-do this, or, as is always true, if
  the feature isn’t already there, you can hack the Linux
  drivers. 
  
  This page seems to be a nice general reference: 
  
    http://gunnarwrobel.de/wiki/Linux-and-the-keyboard.html 
  
  This page seems to go pretty directly to your question: 
  
    http://linuxgazette.net/124/smith.html 
  
  Together, they may give you some ideas. Once the Linux problem
  is solved, *THEN* it can become a Qt problem.

Subject: [Qt-creator] How to take inputs from two keybaords for different 
dialog boxes
  





Hello All,

 

I am using Qt from some-time now. But stuck with one requirement as explained 
below. Can any-body help me in this regard ?

 

I need to connect two keyboards to one Linux machine running a Qt desktop 
application.

 

When I inserted two keyboards in the system, they were working well. But the 
problem is that they are working as one.

 

I am developing an application using Qt 4, which contains two text-areas in two 
different simulatenously opened different dialog boxes. I want to use different 
keyboards for both text-areas. I mean, I want to use Key-board-1 to input text 
in TextArea1 and Key-board-2 to input text in TextArea2.

 

Is it possible ?
