From fe56caa97e626cc6d6e18adbd5ccd1a9aa9a4fcf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Schedel Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2007 00:57:40 +0100 Subject: HID: Support Samsung IR remote Samsung USB remotes (0419:0001) are rejected by kernel 2.6.23, because the report descriptor from the remote contains a 48 bit HID report field. HID 1.11 states: Fields may span at most 4 bytes. This patch, based on 2.6.23, fixes this by modifying the internal report descriptor in hid-quirks.c. Additional user space support (e.g. LIRC) is required to fetch the information from the hiddev interface. The burden to reconstruct the data is moved into userspace (lirc through hiddev). There is no need to set HID_QUIRK_HIDDEV quirk, as the device has also output applications, which trigger the creation of hiddev device automatically.
