[directfb-users] Not able to use USB keyboard with DirectFB

[Harinandan S]

Hi All,

I am not able to use USB Keyboard with DirectFB. I have built DirectFB with
"linux input" as input driver. In my system USB keyboard comes as
/dev/input/event0. I use GTK+ 2.12.2 on DirectFB 1.1.1 and use devmem
system.

When i press a key in a keyboard it was exiting the program by
printing Assertion : g_display->keymap is NULL. So i commented that
g_assert(g_display->keymap==NULL) statement and the program is not exiting
but i am not able to use keyboard.

Am i going wrong somewhere?

Regards,
Harinandan

use dfbinfo & dfbinput -k to ensure that the keyboard support is built
properly

Hi,

When i run dfbinput -k i get the folowing info

(*) DirectFB/Input: Dell Dell USB Keyboard 0.1 (directfb.org)

and an error

(!) Tools/Input: IDirectFBInputDevice::GetKeymapEntry( 0 ) failed!
--> General failure!

what could be the reason why Keymap error is coming? I've built linux input
driver properly since i could use usb mouse using linux input driver.
Thanks and regards,
