I remarked a small regression in this patch: the detection of the serial protocol is not handled anymore. I was indeed relying on the fact that the parameter "id" in mt_probe was null to know that the device was not already in the list of known devices.I see. Will this suffice?Yes, but I'd rather do the test against either id->product or id->driver_data as we may use HID_ANY_ID for vendors specific handling. For instance, I had the confirmation from EETI (eGalax) that they will always use the same protocol for their usb products, thus the same quirks could be handled by HID_DEVICE(BUS_USB, HID_GROUP_MULTITOUCH, USB_VENDOR_ID_DWAV, HID_ANY_ID).
Sounds good. I am sending out a fourth version of the patch which will enable this possibility as well. On a different note, I wonder why the various slot allocations, sysfs entries and post-parse settings are done after the device has been started? Thanks for testing, Henrik
