Evdev is just a wrapper to generalize all events (keyboard, mouse,
joystick touch screen), so you need the individual userland drivers too.
They are all under "Input Devices" in your kernel.

http://linuxconsole.sourceforge.net/input/input.html is the official
homepage.  Check out the SDK (the cvs module is ruby), and compile the
evtest utility.  This will tell you if its working or not.

There is other information about input devices that are actually
attached to your computer in /proc/bus/input

Thats all I can think of off of the top of my head.
