EVTEST-CAPTURE(1) | EVTEST-CAPTURE(1) |
NAME¶
evtest-capture - Input device event capture programSYNOPSIS¶
evtest-capture "/dev/input/eventX" [evtest-capture.xml]
DESCRIPTION¶
evtest-capture captures the information and events from the input device specified on the command line and writes it to the xml file given. If no filename is given for the output file, evtest-capture.xml is chosen as default.xsltproc evtest-create-device.xls evtest-capture.xml > mydevice.c gcc -o mydevice mydevice.c ./mydevice
DIAGNOSTICS¶
If evtest-capture does not see any events even though the device is being used, the device may be grabbed by a process (EVIOCGRAB). This is usually the case when debugging a synaptics device from within X. VT switching to a TTY or shutting down the X server terminates this grab and synaptics devices can be debugged.SEE ALSO¶
