I recently got a (trust 15351) bluetooth mouse.
when I hooked it up to my notebook, Only the Y-Axis did work,
not the X-Axis. with some help from peter hutterer, I could track the
problem down an hid->usage of 0006.0020 that got mapped to abs.misc,
which confused evdev.
There is also a Consumer.HWheel reported, which is not present on the
mouse, but is a further annoyance (it gets mapped to buttens 6/7,
that remaps the real buttons 6/7 to 8/9, and you have to use xmodmap).
I composed this patch to make the hid driver ignore these two "features"
of the mouse.
I'm not sure if this is the right way to do things.
Cheers,
Thomas
