Hello,
I'm trying to work out what devices is being assigned to my USB keyboard (if
that is the right wording)
If I plug in a usb mouse and and install input, hid, usbmouse I can get it to
come up with some garbled output (meaning it works) when I cat /dev/input/mice
and then move the usb mouse around.
Now if I boot straight into Morphix with the USB keyboard plugged in it does
more and shows the following modules loaded:

Now according to info on the net if I cat /dev/input/event0 it should perform
much the same way as cat'ing /dev/input/mice but instead it comes up as :No such
device.
Any ideas as to what the device could be?
I'm using a GA 7i-XE motherboard and trying this with the onboard USB chipset.
Kernel in Morphix is 2.4.21-xfs
