I use an Aten CS1782. It registers both my mouse and keyboard with the same id.
Registering Devices:
Standard - Directory [input]
Standard - Power Button [event0] vId: 0x0 pId: 0x1
Standard - Power Button [event1] vId: 0x0 pId: 0x1
Keyboard - USB Keyboard [event2] vId: 0x4d9 pId: 0x2221
Keyboard - USB Keyboard [event3] vId: 0x4d9 pId: 0x2221
Keyboard - USB Keyboard [event4] vId: 0x4d9 pId: 0x2221
Powermate - Griffin PowerMate [event5] vId: 0x77d pId: 0x410
As I have come to understand this makes it impossible to use the Powermate as there must be a keyboard and mouse registered first.
I tested to change:
if Event.Class in self.InterestedClasses and len(Gizmod.Mice) and len(Gizmod.Keyboards):
to
if Event.Class in self.InterestedClasses:
in the file GizmoScriptDefault.py.
The powermate can after this raise and lower the sound volume, and also mute it. But if I focus Firefox for example and try to scroll, it crashes.
Traceback (most recent call last):

I also tried to register,
and also tried both this and
Need I say, it did not work?
I did not have this problem before I got the CS1782, which is quite lovely I might add. With the exception for this.
I run kubuntu 11.04 x86_64, I had to soft-link /usr/etc/gizmod -> /etc/gizmod/ for gizmod to function, but that's a ubuntu problem.
I'm grateful for any help.
