I've now merged this with a few minor tweaks

 - fix up property names to be in line with the spec
 - match on USB device, not USB interfaces
 - added an entry in the .fdi file for the Logitech Cordless desktop

and I've tested it on said Logitech gadget; here's the screenshot

As visible on the screenshot this device is a composite devices with two
interfaces; one for the keyboard and one for the mouse. Now, is there
any way to tweak the CSR reading code such that we can extract it per
interface; IOW, are there any links to the CSR spec? :-)

You should be able to get by with just running hald/run-hald.sh from
your local checkout without make install (however you won't get hotplug
events). But the two versions can't really coexist, sorry.

Thanks again, Cheers,
David
