Thanks for your report, this is first one with real N810 :-)

Yes, that's possible I have only tried -18 on my N800 and hoped -19 won't be so different. I'll take a look at newer N810 firmware.

So my guess was wrong and N810 uses different input device name or perhaps it uses different key codes. Can you help with debugging this?

As root try to run this

Code:
chroot /mnt/initfs evkey -u -t 5000 /dev/input/event2
And then press left or right arrow. Yu have 5 seconds for this. Do you see some number printed? If not, try same command but with event1 or 3 or 4 or 5 (try "ls /dev/input/event*" to see all of them). If you find right event device for keyboard, can you post key codes for four arrow keys, center key and two buttons next to display? It is even possible that display buttons will be different eventX device than the keyboard. Thanks.
