Here are the comments that I meant to apply to the above patch; they
somehow didn't "take":
Okay, got it. The attached patch makes my Kensington pocket mouse work
again, and doesn't break any of the other input devices I have sitting
around. (Caveat: I have no touchscreens.)
The basic ideas are:
1) If a device says it has relative axes, then any claim that it also has
absolute axes is a lie.
2) A device can only be one of touchscreen, mouse or keyboard. If it looks
like several, then
take the first thing from that list it claims to be.
Bear in mind I haven't ever seen the usbhid, hald or evdev code before a
couple days ago, so please apply vigorous quality control before pushing
this into anything that'll be used by somebody's grandmother!
