I have started some work on a NEWT LinuxEventDeviceTracker, the keyboard parser is about done but it needs testing.

Nice, never thought that this could be implemented in such easy way by just reading /dev/input.. i wonder if there's any issues with input device that creates a lot of "samples" to synchronize/catchup everything.

Worked nicely on x86 debian in X and console.. for some reading bytes out via StructAccessor didn't work (OOB) but had to read right away from ByteBuffer. Anyway, will try to play with RPI and this later :)
