.nf
The XQueryDeviceState request queries the state of an input
device\&. The current state of keys and buttons (up or down), and
valuators (current value) on the device is reported by this
request\&. Each key or button is represented by a bit in the
XDeviceState structure that is returned\&. Valuators on the
device report 0 if they are reporting relative information, and
the current value if they are reporting absolute information\&.

BadDevice
An invalid device was specified\&. The specified device

the X keyboard or X pointer device via the
XChangeKeyboardDevice or XChangePointerDevice requests\&.
