            Bug ID: 222233
           Summary: JOMAA KB616 (093f:2457) trackball not working over 2.4
                    GHz dongle — hid-multitouch claims device incorrectly
                    (HID_DG_BUTTONTYPE out of range)
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: USB
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
        Regression: No

The JOMAA KB616 keyboard+trackball (USB ID 093f:2457, product string "KB616 Dongle", vendor Olympia Telecom Vertriebs GmbH) fails to use the trackball when connected via the included 2.4 GHz dongle on Linux.

Symptoms:
- Keyboard works
- Trackball, mouse buttons, and scroll do not work
- dmesg shows:
hid-multitouch 0003:093F:2457.0007: HID_DG_BUTTONTYPE out of range

The same device works correctly over Bluetooth, over USB cable, and fully in Windows.

Workaround that restores the trackball:
Blacklisting hid-multitouch (modprobe.blacklist=hid-multitouch) so hid-generic binds instead.

Kernel: 7.2.11-ogc4.1.fc44.x86_64

--- Comment #1 from Vibhortyagii ([email protected]) --- Hi,

I’m interested in investigating the HID multitouch device-matching problem.

Is anyone currently working on a fix for this issue? If not, would it be okay for me to investigate it and work on a potential solution?

I’d be happy to study the relevant driver code and submit a patch for review.
