Dell Latitude D820 laptop, with a USB-connected Microsoft Natural keyboard. I don't think it's the USB subsystem going *completely* bonkers, as the USB-connected trackball mouse functions just fine when this happens...

Hmm.. Got a pointer to a usable copy? The best I could find googling for 'linux evtest' was:
https://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/packages/utils/event_test/src/evtest.c
which wants a /dev/inputN - all I have is /dev/input/ and entries under that for the laptop's onboard mousepad and the trackball mouse, no keyboard entry.
Hmm part two:
% zgrep EVDEV /proc/config.gz # CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV is not set
Should I be looking at rebuilding the kernel with this =m?
