I should not mention X server in the discussion. I know we can change the number of valuators in the driver. In fact, there was a "Feature Requests" (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1559638&group_id=69596&atid=525127 created by myself in 2006. One of the reason that we could not make the change was the fake hotplugging "mechanism". So, if the number of valuators is not an issue to the userland, now is the time to consider the request (sorry to mark it as "outdated").
