I don't know too much about Linux input handling but it looks like a
mismatch between VM and image (i.e., that the VM is reporting two codes
that the image needs to merge and that the image doesn't really know
what to do with it).
To track this down, you might start by looking at the incoming events in
EventSensor (but VERY carefully; screwing up there is a great recipe for
a force-quit-restart cycle ;) and see if the event codes look reasonable
to you. Also check out the other input converters - some of them might
already be doing what you need.
Cheers,
