HI Manuel, I have no more idea unfortunately. Maybe you can try with Hid events http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/doc/examples/hid/kb.ck Br, Julien Le dimanche 22 décembre 2013, Manuel Bärenz a écrit :
I tried all numbers from 0 to 7, all the other numbers give, surprisingly, "Power Button ready" and otherwise the same results.

Hi Manuel,
You're welcome and I think you are close to success :-) "Sleep Button ready" means ChucK succeeds to open a device. But it don't looks like to be the right one.
On my side I tested your code replacing 5 by 0 in the line: if(!hid.openKeyboard(0)) me.exit();
It works for me. Can you try the same thing? Maybe argument of openKeyboard is not related to the event number in your system.

Thanks a lot Julien,
I'm still trying to set up the keyboard events. I found /dev/input/by-path/, which contains symlinks to /dev/input with sensible names. I guess this is what you meant. One of them is called "platform-i8042-serio-0-event-kbd", I assume that is the keyboard. It links to /dev/input/event5, so I granted access rights to the device to everyone and wrote the following little script:
Hid hid; HidMsg msg; if(!hid.openKeyboard(5)) me.exit(); <<< hid.name(), "ready">>>; while(true) { hid => now; <<< "received event" >>>; while(hid.recv(msg)) { <<< msg.ascii, " was used" >>>; } }
The output of it is, surprisingly, "Sleep Button ready", and it never comes to the point of "received event". Any ideas?

Hi Manuel and Moisés,
Sorry for confusion I checked my code and I use Hid event not KBHit.
I work on linux too (Debian). And I have to modify a little my linux config to use KeyBoard in Chuck. On linux distrubutions I tried, Chuck didn't receives Kb event by default. But fortunately there is a work around. I am not on my linux PC now so maybe the following is not exactly right: Go to directory /dev/input and find which event corresponds to your keyboard (there is a directory with links name of
