yes, the LIRC inputdrivers generates DirectFB keyboard events and the
GDK-DirectFB layer translates them into GDK events. This should work
for all DirectFB keys that map to GDK key events. Keys that don't map
generate a GDK key event with the keyval set to GDK_VoidSymbol. You
should still be able to recognize the key by looking at the
hardware_keycode field of the GdkEventKey struct.


Salut, Sven
