Hi all,

I'm connected an mceusb remote control to a Raspberry Pi and plan to use 
it to control my audio system. I'm directly reading data from 
/dev/input/event0, which is all well and good (can't be bothered with 
lirc, it's too much trouble).

The one catch to this is that the mceusb remote appears to the system as 
a keyboard, so while I'm pressing keys, they will be also going to the 
system console, and I can see from syslog that these keypresses are 
going to /bin/login (obviously):

Sep 16 07:22:47 tart login[31297]: FAILED LOGIN (1) on '/dev/tty1' FOR 
'UNKNOWN', Authentication failure

This is less than ideal, so can anyone think of any way to stop the usb 
remote from being seen as a keyboard, or to get the system to ignore it? 
I'm not running X on the system, it's just a console-based.

Cheers,

Paul
