Since I only have an N800, is there any way to get xte to fully function correctly since the tablet has no keys?
Right now, the only thing I can do with xte is to send out an Enter key signal and that's about it.

^ Just to add a little more on this, I have
xte 'keydown Space' 'keyup Space'
I'm just trying to send a single spacebar signal to the tablet.
However, that script only works around 15% of the time.
If someone might have a suggestion on how to get this at 100%, I'd be willing to try any and all ideas.

Okay. I get what you're saying here. Thanks.
xte 'keydown space' 'keyup space'
and
xte 'str ' (two spaces)
both work without a complaint.
However, this still only works about once every 8 tries.
I don't understand why it's being such a pill to me.
Auouymous made a mention once that this is because the N800 doesn't have any hardware keys.
F3 can also be a substitute for what I'm attempting to do here. Both F3 and a Spacebar function the same in a game that I'm playing.
However,
xte 'keydown F3' 'keyup F3' (no errors on this either)
only works around 15% of the time as well.
Any chance you could problem solve this?
Maybe I need a N810 special file somewhere in /usr/share/X11/xkb/* or something.
I really don't know.
Thanks for the feedback lma.

You can also store the PIDs in named files if the launch script is separate from the kill script.Code:xkbd & PID1=$! xkbd & PID2=$! kill $PID1
[1|user@Nokia-N800-43-7|~]xkbd -geometry +780+65536 -k /media/mmc2/N800/Keyboards/scummside.xkbd & PID1=$!
[1] 8764
[1|user@Nokia-N800-43-7|~]kill $PID1
kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] [pid | job]... or kill -l [sigspec]
[1|user@Nokia-N800-43-7|~]kill 'pidof -s xkbd'
-bash: kill: pidof -s xkbd: no such pid
So yeah, neither suggestion of yours is taking.
Perhaps you overlooked a simple typo?

Oh, and just to give you a heads up on what I'm doing on this (not that anyone cares *lol*)...
On both sides of the screen, you can now tap on either side and it will bring up a virtual keyboard that I posted over in the SCUMM thread.
It's invisible, but in this picture, I put gold edges on them to show where there both are.

Thanks for the explanation on this chief.
