I was able to get around this by patching the kernel. It seems that because my device (ID 03fc:0588 Elitegroup Computer Systems) supported multitouch, it was no longer being picked up by the hid-core and hid- input drivers. This patch removes those checks for now. The real solution is to update hid-multitouch to support my device (and others), but until then, I will do this.
