Hi G Rajesh!

I believe I can help you find how to captue the keystroke:

# The basic Stuff:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Keyboard-and-Console-HOWTO.html

# A practical example
http://linuxgazette.net/issue55/henderson.html

# A bit off topic but perhaps of interest for connection issues
http://www.handhelds.org/handhelds-faq/keyboards.html

# Hope you can go google from there - trying to learn how the mouse speaks
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=linux+mouse+how-to&btnG=Google+Search

# My choice from the above
http://yolinux.com/HOWTO/Busmouse-HOWTO.html#ss5.1

# Related article

However, haveing it speak as a mouse click, I have not gotten there yet.

Good Hunting!

Tod
