back around 6 years ago (the last I look at the solaris kernel, when working
with Jan), the HID kernel driver was limited to keyboard and mouse.

at that time, we worked on the ugen driver, on which the Solaris version of
the libusb is based (on which the NUT USB drivers are also based in turn).

for the reference:

Maybe you can get more info within Sun?

cheers,
Arnaud
