Hi Bernhard,

This is mostly a repost for the benefit of the opie-devel list, although it 
would be great to hear about any further progress you have made.

By evdev I assume you mean it just generates keystrokes when the buttons are 
pressed? I would imagine you would need to use key constants that QtE 
recognises. Have a look in the QtE source under src/kernel/qnamespace.h and 
see if one of the Key constants there matches up with the keys you need. Once 
you have found the right keycode you should be able to add another entry to 
simpad_buttons[] in libopie2/opiecore/device/odevice_simpad.cpp.

Cheers,
Paul
