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?
