Following Vince's suggestion a month or so ago, I installed
Snare.
I found it easy to install, and useful.
On Gnome, you even get a menu item in 'utilities' to start up
the event logging window.
Give it a try!

I saw Alan Cox's remarks too - and I kinda took them more to mean
that the code would need work done before being officially integrated
into the kernel.
