HID and mice



Hi everyone;

I have a usb device that shows up in the HID explorer, and I'd like to get
data from it using HID.  However, it seems to be classified as a mouse,
since when I press its button it sends out a mouse click.  It does this
even if I have queued up that element using the HID Utilities library and
am current reading data from it.

What I'd like to do is get the data via HID, but prevent the device from
sending out actual mouse click events.

In the archives of this list there was mention of a way to prevent the
device from sending out the mouse clicks: I can make a vendor specific
driver to match my device exactly.  I tried this and it works fine but
then it won't show up as a HID device because my driver matches it exactly
so the HID driver doesn't get a chance.

Is there any way I can get the button clicks using HID but also prevent
the device from sending out a mouse click for each press?

thanks for your help!
