And could you elaborate on "many"? What proportion of HID devices (by volume, model, etc) seem to have problems? I'd certainly expect there to be some HID devices which misbehave (I have one, a cheap MacAlly trackball). Early testing seemed to indicate such misbehavior was the exception to the rule ... folk kept disbelieving me when I pointed out some HID devices misbehaved, since nobody else had seen such a thing! The specific failure I saw was that the device advertised itself as supporting remote wakeup, but it couldn't issue that signaling. It came back from suspend just fine ... but moving or clicking would not do what it should. - Dave - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
