Any news about this? I have no problem throwing away the whole patch set and use a different approach, if there is any :)
And I need one, because I have a patch pending for a MIDI/Controller device which is something like a drum computer control device, and this one has more ABS information channels than currently supported by the input stack.
OTOH, the current plan is to use *axis* information for the transport to the user space, but in fact, their hardware representation is a pressure-sesitive button. Same counts for potentiometers etc, which aren't axis either. So maybe I should use some different layer for such devices? MIDI legacy after all? I'm open to any suggestions :)
Thanks, Daniel
