Subject[PATCH] Fix genius pensketch 12x9 tablet
From
Date
The Genius PenSketch 12x9 tablet has a puck (labeled a
"Tablet Mouse") in addition to a pen. Without registering a quirk
the tablet appears to be a single input device that reports the
wrong axis information in /proc/bus/input/devices, and sends
incorrect events (e.g. ABS_Z instead of ABS_Y). This information
confuses the X evdev driver and makes the device impossible to
use.

The quirk fixes events and splits the device into multiple input
event devices so that at least the puck is useful.

NOTE: xinput lists the puck but not the pen. I've been using a
python script to verify the contents of the events independently
of X and, as far as I can tell, the remaining problems are in X
itself.

Tested on: 2.6.24, 2.6.25, 2.6.27, 2.6.28-rc8
