Keng-Yü Lin [2011-02-25 17:22 +0800]:
> Can udev re-map a key code to another?

Not directly, as udev itself doesn't actually process the input
events. It just pokes the scan code -> keycode map into the kernel.

What it can do is to re-map an existing key (scan code) to a different
key code, which provides the same effect in most cases.
