@whot@fosstodon.org Remap the keys of the ACK05 as tablet buttons? 🤯 Sounds like a brilliant idea and it worth trying it. Sure, I’ll fill a new issue with all keys and dial output with hid-recorder.
@whot@fosstodon.org By the way, I have seen the replay of your conference with Benjamin at the Linux Plumbers Conf in Vienna. https://www.youtube.com/live/rQtQ-Nd1ZmA?t=28884s , it was very interesting! 👍
I really enjoyed learning about the structure of the project, the user hack/testing/stable and the naming convention. It helped me at browsing the source (even if I can’t still understand what’s going on for many lines, even on simple one like the code for the foot pedal 😆 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/udev-hid-bpf/-/blob/main/src/bpf/userhacks/0010-QuinHeng__PCsensor-FootSwitch.bpf.c?ref_type=heads ) But I’m trying to learn.
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org I recommend reading my post on understanding HID first, no chance to understand this otherwise.

The code is simple, but only if you understand all the magic that goes on behind the scenes :)
As it happens, udev-hid-bpf also has a tutorial which may make things more or less confusing: https://libevdev.pages.freedesktop.org/udev-hid-bpf/tutorial.html
