Here is Peter Selinger's recipe for getting started with newhidups:

   drivers/newhidups -u root -DD -x generic auto

I can't remember exactly what version (source snapshot) of the code
provides the 'generic HID' support, but it may be worth the time to
get CVS set up. That way, if any changes are needed, you can just
update your working copy, and test them.

CVS instructions are here:
