Yes... this is something that needs to be addressed. On GNU/Linux
[hid] isn't really [hid] after all, its Linux input. Bad naming on
my part.
/dev/input/event? and /dev/usb/hiddev0 have different data formats,
hence the crashing.
So yes, to use /dev/usb/hiddev? devices, there needs to be a proper
[hid] object.

Hey Hans,
So my magictouch touchscreen does have a device file created, but
it is not a /dev/input/event file, but is rather a /dev/usb/hiddev0 file.So I'm not sure how the HID stuff related to the input device
stuff, but it looks like the touchscreen is HID, but not linux event.Anyhow I tried making a symlink from /dev/input/event3 to /dev/usb/ hiddev0 but that just crashes PD. I guess since HID is expecting linux input formatted data, not raw HID data.
What can I do to get this to work? I want to use HID and not the X
windows driver, since i don't want the installation to interfere with the
mouse.Do I have to wait for [hid] proper (rawhid) or is there anything I
can do to make this hid device compatible with the linux input system?!?!?!Thanks. B.
