Description

Hi, I'm using this tool on an Ubuntu 20.04 hosted on cloud and no logs were observed on /var/log/logkeys.log nor on the specified log file only the date when the logging started.

I tried troubleshooting this by specifying the device found on 'cat /proc/bus/input/devices (AT Translated Set 2 keyboard)'.

Can anyone help me?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the report on an Ubuntu 20.04 cloud host and inspect /var/log/logkeys.log plus the specified log file after selecting the keyboard device from /proc/bus/input/devices. Compare the observed output with the expected key events; done means the configured log contains entries beyond the logging-start date.
