I used the python script from the wiki and it delivered only zeros.
#!/usr/bin/python
import struct
from math import sqrt
x = 0
y = 0
z = 0
secondsensorfile = "/dev/input/event3"
#int, int, short, short, int
fmt = 'iihhi'
#open file in binary mode
in_file = open(secondsensorfile,"rb")
event = in_file.read(16)
while event:
(time1,time2, type, code, value) = \
struct.unpack(fmt,event)
time = time1 + time2 / 1000000.0
if type == 2:
if code == 0:
x = value
if code == 1:
y = value
if code == 2:
z = value
if type == 0 and code == 0:
sum = int(sqrt(x*x + y*y + z*z))
print x, y, z, sum
event = in_file.read(16)
in_file.close()
