USB keyboard driver question
 
I am the owner of a particular wireless keyboard/mouse combo that sadly enough dont work right away under Linux.

A guy has however developed a work around (see tcnj.edu/~tolboom2/globlink_rf88.html) that do work.

It either involves making some changes to the USB-keyboard driver or using a small user space program.

I would like to use the later method to avoid having to update every version of the Linux driver every time I download it.

The problem is that the program must be executed after usbfs is loaded (that is used by the program to send some magic bytes to the keyboard) but BEFORE the Linux keyboard driver is loaded and I have no clue about how / if this can be done...

All suggestions are appreciated!

Best Regards

Seem to be to late...
 
I tried that but it seems like the keyboard driver is already loaded by then and then the fix does not work...
