Hi Mattia,
I'm running pure 32-bit (a standard i386 sid), except the kernel, which is 64-bit compiled by me with IA-32 support (I can't use Debian's because my laptop needs the USB hub's driver compiled in the kernel).
I emphasize that I'm not running any 64-bit code in userland at the moment.
I don't mind being cc'd from upstream. Thanks,

Hi, is there a reason why this driver doesn't work when running in 32-bit userland under a 64-bit kernel?
The same configuration works in pure 32 bits. In 64 bits I'm running a monolithic kernel (without modules support). The pad is indeed detected by the kernel:
out of curiosity, are you running the 32bit binary of the X driver or the 64bit one? if you fetched the amd64 binary pgk you have the 64bit version. The x86_64 binary has some different DEFINES defined at compile time. Altought this may not be the cause of the driver failure, I'd expect a SIGSEGV in the above situation.
Other than that I don't have a clue... I'll try to contact upstream on the issue (do you mind being Cc-ed?)
thanks
