Subject: USB Creative Technology SB Arena Headset Quirk Question
Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2012 14:08:21 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <50182D25.3080503@canonical.com> (raw)

Hello,
I am trying to find the best way to resolve a hardware issue with a USB
Creative Technology SB Arena Headset (0x41e:0x403).

The headset also has buttons on it which register as a keyboard:
[252903.181] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Creative
Technology SB Arena Headset" (type: KEYBOARD, id 15)

When it is plugged in, it then starts sending button 3 presses for the
entire time it is plugged in causing input from other devices to not be
useable.

Here is the current bug with more information:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1007575

I'd like to help fix this, and am wondering if it makes sense to quirk
the kernel HID driver, or rather quirk the X evdev module as was
suggested by another developer.

Thanks,
--chris j arges
