Comment 16 for bug 215035

It seems that you are using an older live CD, alpha-2 perhaps? Anyway, let's debug this then

> /usr/share/udev-extras/findkeyboards yields no output

Right, indeed this does not support USB keyboards yet. Can you please run the attached version instead? (Download it and do "chmod a+x findkeyboards", then run "./findkeyboards").

> when i press the unmapped keys it segfaults

Uh, not good. Could be that it has invalid keys assigned. Could you please run it with

  sudo gdb --args /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event7

(or whatever the event number is), then enter "run", press an unmapped key (which should trigger a crash) and do "bt full"? Please copy&paste the output.

Could you please try running "sudo showkey -s" instead, press the keys which don't work, and copy&paste the output? (together with a description of which output line corresponds to which key).

I also need the system vendor/product and udev dump (see steps 4 and 5 in README.keymap.txt)

Thanks!
