I'll have a look at uinput. uinput support is now committed to scr_linux.c. I am using the exernal keyboard of my bluetooth capable braille display to type this email already via uinput :-). The same layout is used as is configured on the box. Our generic AT2 support maps to VAL_PASSKEY commands and the AT2 support for Linux maps the AT2 scancode set to what Linux internally uses for scancodes (a sort of XT scancode set, but not really). -- CYa, Mario
