Thanks, I've merged the first two patches, they'll be in my next pull
request.

Can you publish the evdev patches you're using at the moment somewhere so I
can have a look (if it isn't in one of the RFC emails already, I'm a bit
behind).

My motivation to make the valuator API so restricted was to prevent the
drivers from trying to be clever. They should just set the data they get,
pass it on to the server and be done with it. 

Cheers,
