I had a look at your patch. I cleaned it up a little (see attached), but 
if you could make the rest of it look like the code in MythTV I'll apply
it. Have a look at: http://www.mythtv.info/moin.cgi/CodingStandards

In particular in your code, please don't use tabs, use ANSI C bracing 
(instead of K&R), and please use a singleton class when only one 
version of the class should exist at any one time in the application. 
The last one is not mentioned in the wiki document, but allows you to 
get rid of those static/global arrays. We also generally capitalize the 
first letter in method names, but if you are overloading a Qt method 
this doesn't apply. Also if a C header has a C++ equivalent use the C++ 
in C++ code (i.e. cmath instead of math.h), this makes g++ 3.5 happy.

BTW You need to add --enable-linux-input to ./configure to use your
code in the attached patch.
