Hi Aciera!

i solved it, my problem had several culprits.

1. I have a documentaion for my MPG, which told me which keys are generated. i don't know why, but for 3 buttons, the documentation was simply wrong..  While learning the keyd feature, i learned how to grab the sent keys...

2. With the right udev rules, i can load the "keyd virtual keyboard" into the hal-input.
Everything works fine now, 

3. I did not solve my problem that a few keys triggered the ui, i tried with -KRAL Option, no luck, but i remapped the keys with keyd, so ther is no interaction with the ui any more.

Thanks for your help!
I would say i start figuring out how to net the keys in the halui, i think i will need some help there, because all my buttons are push-buttons, with no lock in pressed-state.

Do you think it is helpful for other people how to handle keyd?
I can offer to write a small tutorial for this tool, but only it there are interested people around..

Greets, Tom
