Hi, You need to make sure that the 'evdev' module is loaded (or built into your kernel) and look at /dev/input/event*. Initially my kernel wasn't set up to use these kinds of devices and like you I only got junk on the hiddev* devices. Now I have appleir and evdev loaded as modules and things work for me.
