if evtest doesn't see the keys, there are three options:
- the device doesn't send them
- the kernel doesn't forward them (likely a hid problem and worthy of a bug at
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/hid-tools/)
- the keycode isn't mapped. search for the 60-keyboard.hwdb file on your
computer and read the instructions at the top.
Most likely the scancodes on this keyboard aren't mapped correcly. Work the
above list bottom to top ;)
Cheers,
Peter
