Hello all.
I'm a OpenDreambox 2.0 user (with Gemini bluepanel plugin).
I bought a 2.4GHz wireless usb keyboard/trackball device.
When i bought it in Bangkok / Thailand at Zeer, the seller already noticed, are you sure you want it, because it's a windows only device. At that time i didn't discover same kind of device from logitech, so i bought it. Because i had my windows xp based htpc in mind (self assembled atx pc of 13 years old that just keep working ).
But I still thought, let's give it a try when I'm back in Amsterdam (Netherlands) if it works on my Dreambox DM8000 with OE2.0.
So back in Amsterdam, i connect the device to win htpc, and it works out of the box (plug&play).
I connect it to the Dreambox DM8000 front usb , and the mouse keys are working !
So the device is connected to the DM8k with oe2.0.0(uptodate).
I wonder how i can get all functions like trackball and keyboard keys working.
When i look in opendreambox . menu > setup > system > input devices
then i see this is added: HID 04d9:2517 and HID 04d9:2517 (so 2 times the same)
I also have the native dreambox advanced remote in use.
When i look in Gemini bluepanel at:
Bluepanel > Information > Hardware
Then i see this as keyboard and mouse:
Type: Input (keyboard)
Name: HID 04d9:2517
Device: /dev/input/event0
Type: Input (Mouse) (Joystick)
Name: HID 04d9:2517
Device: /dev/input/event1
Type: Input (Keyboard)
Name: dreambox front panel
Device: /dev/input/event2
Dreambox remote is now as:
Type: Input (IR)
Name: dreambox remote control (native)
Device: /dev/input/event3
Anyone know what to do to get maximum functionality. Do i need to added extra kernel modules, or reflash the dm8000 with oe2.0 and connected 2.4GHz usb keyboard?
And yes i do know it's sold as windows only hardware, but since i experience working mouse buttons on the wireless 2.4GHZ keyboard-trackball, the connection and hardware would be ok right?
