From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030508 Description of problem: The Griffin Powermate needs additional info in /etc/hotplug/usb/handmap to funtion properly with the standard linux kernel driver as shipped with RH9. Basically it too (like the wacom devices mentioned in the same file) needs, but does not depend on the evdev driver. Adding the following lines to usb.handmap fixes the problem: evdev 0x0003 0x077d 0x0410 0x0000 0x0000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00000000 evdev 0x0003 0x077d 0x04aa 0x0000 0x0000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00000000 To test use the tools on: http://www.sowerbutts.com/powermate/ The following is an example test session for the python script: python> import powermate p = powermate.PowerMate() .. it will throw an exception if it doesn't find the powermate. Or even simpler - cat /dev/input/event0 - if it's there then it won't say device not found. Ref for Powermate product: http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/powermate/index.html Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2002_04_01-17 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try using the example code above or catting /dev/input/event0 when the powermate is plugged in. 2. /var/log/messages also tells you the device has not been recognised if evdev is not loaded. Actual Results: Powermate tools don;t work. Expected Results: Powermate tools should have worked. Additional info:
