Hi, thanks for reporting. I cannot see anything uncommon in your evtest output. Did another keyboard work as expected on your machine? Could you start sudo keymapperd -v in one and keymapper -v in another terminal and copy the output here, thanks!

Works, the issue was due to my weird setup.

I run Fedora Silverblue and keymapper is installed and running in a privileged Arch Linux distrobox container. When I run keymapperd -v, the only visible device event file is the one for my mouse. If I run sudo keymapperd -v, all device event files are accessible, and works as intended.

When checking the permissions of /dev/input/event* on my machine, since the container is a different distro than the host, the gid for the group input doesn't map exactly, so the unprivileged keymapperd cannot open the event files for all my hardware.

As a possible improvement, it would be nice if keymapperd would print out a notice if the /dev/input/event files can't be read because of permission problems.
