Hi,

I compiled keyszner from the main repo. Unfortunately keszner list-devices fails to recognize anything except a tablet!

There has been an existing problem with xkeysnail not detecting certain keyboards, like Logitech MX Master keyboards, and possibly some Microsoft keyboards. This was inherited by keyszer. You can supposedly add the device manually, but I don't know how that is done.

Seems the auto-detection of keyboard devices really needs to be improved.

@RedBearAK Thanks for pointing out. But even non-microsoft and logitech keyboards like megamoda or delux keypad and PC-03 footswitch are not detected either! No keyboard and mouse are detected at all.

Anyway it is good to know about what you stated. Cheers, /z

@zenny

Hmm, you're right, you may be having a different problem. I thought it was strange that two keyboards were missed, but I wasn't paying attention to the mice.

Did you follow the directions to give keyszer its own user and access to the right group? But the tablet shows up. Pretty strange situation. I don't know what could be causing that.

If you post the details about your system hardware, distro, DE and so on, maybe someone else will have some idea of how to proceed with troubleshooting.

Sounds like a permission issue or something. List devices should do exactly what the name says - it does not try to detect the type of device, it lists all the USB inputs devices it can find... What are the permissions to /dev/input?

I meant if you ask keyszer both as root and non root.

@joshgoebel and @RedBearAK Thanks for your inputs. It worked after I updated python, and recompiled from the master. Thanks for your inputs. Have a nice week.
