Re: [gentoo-user] Deactivate keyboard
Hi, Hi! I have set up Gentoo on a system that I would like to use as a video, music player and sometimes to check my emails. There is a remote control connected to it and is detected as a serial keyboard. Now I want the xorg-server not to process events coming from this keyboard. I also have a bluetooth keyboard that I want to connect to that system and events coming from this keyboard should be processed. So, is it possible to deactivate one keyboard? I think so, what about deactivating the one you do not want to use in your xorg.conf? Thats exactly what I'm trying to do: deactivate the keyboard in my xorg.conf. But how can I do it?

Removing the part in your conifg, I suppose. A question: Don't you want to use the keyboard anymore with X? Sven I suppose you meant the part: Section InputDevice Identifier Standard Keyboard Driver kbd Option AutoRepeat 500 30 Option XkbRules xorg Option XkbModel pc105 Option XkbLayout de Option XkbVariant nodeadkeys EndSection If I remove this part from my config X would use a standard configuration for keyboads connected to that computer. My goal is that only one keyboard will not work. This way I can use a daemon to process events coming from this device. -- GMX FreeMail: 1 GB Postfach, 5 E-Mail-Adressen, 10 Free SMS.

My goal is that only one keyboard will not work. This way I can use a daemon to process events coming from this device. I haven't ever tried this, but have you looked into using a keyboard section with an option similar to: Option Device /dev/input/mice but replacing /dev/input/mice with the path to the keyboard you *do* want to use (I have no idea what that path would be...)? Nice idea but after a short test I found out that this configuration doesn't work. The path to a keyboard-event ist for example /dev/input/event5 or /dev/input/by-id/kbd-id. The problem is that this device nodes create key-press-events, key-release-events and so on. I think I'll leave the special buttons on the remote control alone and only use the arrow and ok keys. -- Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?
