Right, it waits, but I does not if I want it to wait...

Yes will call the 'usb_submit_urb' in each invocation of the 'atp_complete'
function. And if I do this the 'atp_complete' function will be called
continuously.
My problem is: If I decide (upon the data I received from the touchpad), that
there isn't a finger any longer on the pad, I want to stop the calling of the
'atp_complete' function until I'm sure the touchpad is touched again. Then I
want the data again till it's released again.
After I suspend and resume the computer this works. How can I archive this
within the interrupt-handler-code?
Another possibility (for me) would be to make the interval (in the untouched
times)
longer. Is this possible?

Sven
