I'm on Debian 9.5 32-Bit. Will this [hidio] version work with 32bit?
Anyway, I think I am fine now. I found a list in /var/log/kern.log that lists the devices including the input number that is used by [hid].
With a combination of dmesg | grep "devicename" followed by [drip] and [stripfilename] I can reliably retrieve the input number that is used by [hid].
I'll see if [hidio] will work on 32bit.
Thanks everybody! I appreciate your effort!
Ingo

[PD] [hid] (Debian 9.5) - How to find out the device numbers? From: "Ingo" ingo@miamiwave.com Date: 08/10/2019 à 13:33
I need to connect a mouse with varying hardware. However, "open by device type" does not work. "Open by vendor / product ID" does not seem to work either.
With the Linux64 hidio external, the message "open by vendor /product id" works on my system. example : [open 0x04f3 0x0224, 1( Does anybody know how to list the Device Numbers without opening the console? In my modified version of hidio (see https://github.com/jyg/PdMultitouch/blob/master/hidio/hidio_linux.c) I changed the code inside void hidio_devices(t_hidio *x) so that when you send the message [devices( , you get the devices list on the second outlet of hidio. This has to be implemented in the hidio_darwin.c file so that it will be consistent between 2 OSs
