    I think is not necessary because there is only one input device: the keyboard itself.

    Anyway I tried to set that env var to '/dev/input/input0;grab=1' with no chance.

      Did you check whether you have the rights to access that device ?

        Yes I did. Currently, I'm running the application as root to avoid any problem related to the rights.

          Then call your application with QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 set, you'll see if there's something happening with the plugins.

            Setting QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 leads to no warnings nor messages. The pressed keys are still sent to the console.

              Can you show your configuration and the command used to launch your application ?

                It's a Raspberry Pi Model B+ running a linux buildroot o.s.:

                @

                uname -a

                Linux rpi 3.12.26 #1 PREEMPT Thu Oct 2 20:45:27 CEST 2014 armv6l GNU/Linux
                @

                Here the command I use to launch my application:

                @
                ./myapp
                @

                I also tried:

                @
                ./myapp < /dev/tty1
                @

                Even with the QT_QPA_EVDEV_KEYBOARD_PARAMETERS variable set, when I hit any key on the keyboard it will show the char on the console, instead of being grabbed by the application. I.e. no QCoreApplication::event() is emitted.

                  What parameters did you set on QT_QPA_EVDEV_KEYBOARD_PARAMETERS ?

                    As I said in a previous post I tried the following:

                    @
                    export QT_QPA_EVDEV_KEYBOARD_PARAMETERS=‘grab=1’
                    export QT_QPA_EVDEV_KEYBOARD_PARAMETERS=‘/dev/input/input0;grab=1’
                    @

                    Anyway the keyboard is the only input device available and also the only USB device connected.

                      Are you running your application through ssh ?

                        The behavior is the same if either I launch the application through ssh or locally.
