I second evtest which is very straightforward.
Upon running evtest (with root privileges)
you will be presented with a menu of all devices it can monitor.
You just have to type the associated number to select that device.

Of course it's not pre-installed in the live version of Debian,
or any debian,
but you can install it just fine.

$ sudo apt-get install evtest
[...]
$ sudo evtest
