Thanks, I've managed to get a few buttons working using the gpio-key
overlay, it's working great for the buttons.

I do have a rotary-encoder also, and there seems to be rotary_encoder
kernel module also, documented 'here'
(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raspberrypi/firmware/master/boot/overlays/README),
once I get the module added it won't emulate a keyboard however so I may
have to tinker with jivelite a little in order for it to see the
encoder.

Even just having the buttons working for now it great however. :)

Thanks, the examples are big help. I'll add a few extra I'm using also:


Code:
--------------------
    dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=12,keycode=57 # KEY_SPACE - play/pause
  dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=26,keycode=16 # Q - power on/off
--------------------


So far so good and seems for more responsive than sbpd too.
