Dear Dmitry,

So you mean it should say:

	codes[0] = 0x00070010 ; /* M keycap */
	codes[1] = 49; /* assign to N */

	if(ioctl(fd, EVIOCSKEYCODE, codes)) {
		perror("evdev ioctl");
	}

Yes, you were right. Please find the corrected file attached.

But it seems that the behavior is exactly the same.

The kernel I use is 2.6.33 . It's a debian distro running on a risc processor.

Do you have any idea where that issue could come from?

Thank you for the help,
David
