Keyfuzz manipulates scancode tables in Linux input layer. It's a tool that facilitates this process.
Keyfuzz Project is a highly useful tool that allows users to manipulate scancode/keycode translation tables that are supported by keyboard drivers using the Linux input layer API. With this software, users can easily fix translation tables for multimedia keyboards or laptop keyboards equipped with special keys. Keyfuzz is not a daemon and doesn't react to special hotkeys, but it can be used to make non-standard keyboards compatible with daemons such as Gnome acme.
The software should be run once at boot time, and all modifications made by keyfuzz will remain active until a system reboot is performed. Keyfuzz does not interact directly with XFree86, but newer releases of XFree86 (4.1 and above) rely on the Linux input API and can take advantage of the translated tables.
The software comes with scancode tables for Medion 9580F and MSI S270 laptops. The developer encourages users to send scancode tables which can then be integrated into the package. The only requirement for running this tool is a Linux input layer kernel, such as 2.6.1.
For installation, simply use the GNU autotools to configure the source tree, and then compile it using the make command. To install the software, use make install as root.
In this latest release, users can expect the addition of another scancode table, and the build system has been updated for enhanced compatibility. Overall, Keyfuzz is a must-have for anyone looking to fix scancode/keycode translation tables on Linux systems supporting the Linux input layer API.
