my EIZO FlexScan T68 is not a HID compatible device: T: Bus=04 Lev=02 Prnt=02 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 3 Spd=12 MxCh= 0 D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1 P: Vendor=056d ProdID=0001 Rev= 1.01 C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr= 0mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=ff Driver=(none) E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 8 Ivl=10ms What does your EIZO say in /proc/bus/usb/devices ? > What would be the right/preferred way to make such a monitor control? > Implement an ioctl in hiddev.c or put the device to hid_blacklist? > Make a user space program or a kernel module? A user space program is the right choice and if usbhid binds you monitor device you can blacklist it or call usb_detach_kernel_driver_np() before you wanna use it. > Is there anyone working on a monitor control for this or another monitor > already? I have only found tools for USV. The final goal after we moved over to generic HID driver should be to send/receive any HID report to/from the device from the user space.
