USB keyboard (wireless)

Daniel
Hello,

i'm trying to use a wireless usb keyboard in linux, but i cant get it to
work. It is based on 2.4 Ghz technology, no bluetooth. 

A wired keyboard works great, but not that wireless keyboard. In the linux
kernel configuration i enabled all needed USB, HID and input features.

Could it be a power problem ? I mean that the USB sender/reveicer needs
more current than a simple wired usb keyboard ? I always thought, that a
wireless keyboard is just a HID device, like all other common
usb-keyboards.
On my Ubuntu Linux PC, i can use the same keyboard without problems.

The keyboard is a Hama 2.4G Wireless Keyboard:

thanks,

Hello Daniel,

My old Logitech Cordless Optical set works fine, keyboard and mouse with no
kernel tweaking. as you said, it should be just a HID device. Maybe you can
check that point on a PC?

what kernel version ? friendlyARM kernel or some other ? I'm using the
kernel from: http://repo.or.cz/w/linux-2.6/mini2440.git
