Yes, on same machine. Under Windows i don't have evdev interface,
checked only how keypress go to console.
Of course to repeat a try You must have at least 5 keyboards and
1 7-port or 2 4-port hubs and kernel 2.6.22 and above. I allways
got result - 5th, 6th, 7th keyboard does not send events to console
or evdev.
