Hi,

The Smart Cat device is recognized with the evdev driver correctly, but it =

You're right.

You are here right too: with the `synaptics-test' program, there are 3 butt=
ons, but total of seven combined, motion and only vertical scrolling works.

It seems the touchpad is quite simple.

Smart Cat stream is very direct (thanks Jan for synaptics-test):

The driver that binds it is usbhid. But how do I make it active?
Thanks,
