 Arnout>  This is not really a buildroot-related question,

Or eGalaxy support for their non-upstream driver.

uinput is the interface for injecting input events into the kernel
(E.G. for userspace input drivers), and hidraw is the interface
to communicate with non-input devices (ab)using the hid protocol.

 Arnout>  For future posts, please

 Arnout> - mention the buildroot and kernel versions you use;

 Arnout> - post a defconfig instead of a a full config;

 Arnout> - post text attachments with disposition:inline so people can
 Arnout> quote them.

Indeed.
