From: Dotan Cohen on 8 Feb 2010 03:00 As my typing speed increases I find that I am sometimes hittin keyboad shortcuts that I don't mean to, and I have no idea what I have done or how to undo it. For instance, just now I accidentally closed Firefox, and I most certainly did not hit Alt-F4 nor close the last tab (actually 4 tabs are open). I use Vimperator so maybe I hit Q but I was typing in a textarea so I doubt that was the case. Is there a personal keylogger that I could install to see what I am hitting?

There is LKL¹, but seems to be only available for 32 bits: *** userspace keylogger for x86 architecture LKL is a userspace keylogger that runs under Linux on the x86 architechture. LKL sniffs and logs everything that passes through the hardware keyboard port (0x60). It translates keycodes to ASCII with a keymap file. *** ¹ http://packages.debian.org/lenny/lkl Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

From: Dotan Cohen on 9 Feb 2010 04:10 It looks like LKL doesn't work. Although it runs, it does not produce an output file. In online forums I see much mention of other people who cannot get it to work, yet no solutions. It might be that I am selecting the wrong keymap, how can I know which keymap I am currently using? Thanks! dotancohen(a)dcl:~$ sudo lkl -l -k '/usr/share/lkl/keymaps/us_km' -o /home/dotancohen/keylog Started to log port 0x60. Keymap is /usr/share/lkl/keymaps/us_km. The logfile is /home/dotancohen/keylog. ^[c ^C dotancohen(a)dcl:~$ ls inOut music dotancohen(a)dcl:~$ -- Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com http://gibberish.co.il Please CC me if you want to be sure that I read your message.

After a bit digging, it seems in fact to be a faulty package: lkl: not fit for release http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=548604 Sorry, I did not look further before recommending it O:-) OTOH, it looks like there is not replacement for that utility :-?
