Ok, so they're essentially the same thing, just with different default
ZAxisMapping and Buttons settings?
Also different magic knock sequence that needs to be sent to the device,
and different format on the wire.
I assume if you have something
different, e.g 5 buttons plus a wheel, you just pick one of the two, and
customise it?
No, then you need to use evdev. The kernel input layer converts
everything to *PS/2 on /dev/input/mice, and that format doesn't allow
for such complex mice.
