evtest — Kernel input device debugging

evtest is a tool to print evdev kernel events. It reads directly from the kernel device and prints a device description and the events with the value and the symbolic name.

Usage:

evtest /dev/input/event0

Note: in most cases evtest needs to run as root to be able to read the devices.

For more information, see the evtest(1) man page.
