Chris, it might interest you that the event node now fires and outputs
events, when letting hid-multitouch handle the device through Benjamin's
patch (Writing "3 0eef a001 1" to new_id).

I think when adding the MULTITOUCH5 in the source in the exact same
manner MULTITOUCH[1-4] are added I must have copied some quirks which
interfere with the event node. Now, adding the device by Benjamin's way
does not load any quirks by default, so the event node works.

Either Benjamin or I will tell you more once we discovered something
definite.

regards,
Cedric
