I am considering re-writing the HID descriptor to expose these separate values as 'proper' axis, as they would provide both better resolution and better functionality (ie. left foot braking). Q1. Is this an acceptable thing to do? Q2. In the case where there is significant change to the HID descriptor, is it OK to just re-write the whole block (rather than patch/swap a couple of bytes)?
When I asked a similar question on linux-usb, nobody answered, but nobody complained when I submitted patches with 8 full report descriptors either. They were accepted by Jiri Kosina. I could also recommend using my tool for (de-)composing HID report descriptors: http://digimend.sourceforge.net/#proj-hidrd Sincerely, Nick -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
