If the SuperPen (got a URL to show what it looks like?) really does use the same protocol as the wacom devices, then it'll need to be added to the driver source code. If the same source told you that it'll work, and all you need to do is to hack the modules table, then I'm not optimistic about your chances.

Can you post the contents of /proc/bus/usb/devices with both of these devices plugged in? That is pretty important to get the next step sorted out. Also, can you get http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/linuxconsole/ruby/utils/evtest.c?rev=1.19 and test each device? For the mouse, it would help if you could annotate the output with what actions corresponded to which outputs (eg "these three lines occurred when I pressed and released the middle button") Brad - -- http://linux.conf.au. 22-25Jan2003.
