Re: Tips for diagnosing ghost arrow key presses with USB keyboard?

[David Wilson]

Thanks for the ideas Tobias!

The specific keyboard is the "ThinkPad Compact USB Keyboard with Trackpoint" 
which seems to be supported by the "hid-lenovo" driver:

lsmod tells me that it's loaded in my system and dmesg seems to indicate that 
the "lenovo" driver is being used when the device gets plugged in.

I'll certainly give usbmon a shot, thanks for the tip!  I found this resource 
which got me started with it pretty easily:

Now I just have to decipher the log output :)

Thanks!
