Hi,

I omitted what looks unrelated, please let me know if you need other
details or the full content.
Also I wasn't sure how to find the relevant driver, so I pasted the
relevant dmesg snippets. If there is a more precise way to identify
the driver please let me know and I'll send the missing items.

Gen1:

dmesg

HID: magicmouse: do not set up autorepeat

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>

Neither trackpad, nor the mouse want input core to generate autorepeat
events for their buttons, so let's reset the bit (as hid-input sets it
for these devices based on the usage vendor code).
