I have a similar, but slightly different, problem on OS X (10.4,
Macbook pro). A Logitech Marble Mouse (trackball) shows up as device 0,
but I can't get any data out of it. The trackpad, on the other hand, is
fully accessible through [hid]. Any ideas?

Chances are that the trackpad is an USB device, but just internal.
But I don't think that's the issue. I think in recent versions of
Ubuntu, the X server or related process grabs the keyboard and mice
using exclusive access. You have to tell the X server to not use the
mice that you want to use with [hid]. Check the archives, there is
quite a bit of discussion about it. It would be great to have a wiki
page about this...

Hi Simon,
Thanks for the fast response. No, it isn't. It's the standard
synaptic touchpad that comes with many laptops.

It's not a permission issue, i've already gave permission to
/dev/input/event0-9 and /dev/input/mouse0-2.
is your touchpad a USB HID device?
