I am trying to find a way to use two keyboards with syscons, something like: mkfifo /tmp/mykbds cat /dev/kbd1 >/tmp/mykbds & cat /dev/kbd2 >/tmp/mykbds & kbdcontrol -k /tmp/mykbds </dev/console (The above doesn't work 'kbdcontrol: unable to obtain keyboard information: Operation not supported' ) Is there some way to do this?
