hi chris and all others,

thanks for your encouraging words ;-)
on that issue i want to announce that there is now mailing-list for the multio project : http://tema.lo-res.org/mailman/listinfo/multio
in the future, im going to announce anything related to that device there.
also note that currently the site http://multio.mamalala.de will be updated almost daily. im going to put up more documentation, together with small circuits for sensors and actuators.
again, if someone wants a iobox but cant solder it, im offering to do the solderwork. that means there is a way to get complete, ready-to-use ioboxes.
greets,
chris
Yes, this is definitely a good thing. I saw a brief mention of a USB
HID implementation for this but I can't find any info on that. It
would be awesome if the multio box would show up as a USB HID device,
then it would work with the [hid] objects.

yes, it does show up as hid device. it has two usb configurations, hid (default) and non-hid.
there is only one small thing in the linux event system that keeps the box away from using _all_ of its i/o capabilities. problem is that the linuxevent system has artificial limits imposed on how many buttons/led's/absolute axes a device should have at maximum. for sure im way above that maximum ..... another thing is that the event system by default does not send absolute values to the device. altough it _can_ do sending stuff, as you can see with led's (on the keyboard, for example), it refuses to do so with absolute controllers. on my page i have written a small text on how to tweak linux's event modules to handle that. see http://multio.mamalala.de/driver.html
