X and the Input architecture

[Ben V. H. <dai...@ya...>]

I am writing an input driver for UC-Logic Superpen USB
tablets and am running into some difficulties.  

When configuring the input device, I am setting absmax
to the appropriate values for this tablet (5500 and
4000, respectively) and the absmin values to 0. 
However, when I configure XFree86 to use
/dev/input/mice and insmod my new driver, the tablet
area does not seem to represent the full screen. 
There is a portion of the tablet which is "active",
and if I move outside of that area, the "active" area
moves, too.  The pressure readings also seem to be not
reaching X.

Mousedev is compiled and installed, with the screen
resolution set to 1024x768, which is my X resolution.

I have X configured to treat /dev/input/mice as a
IMPS/2 protocol device.  Is this correct?  I suspect
it is not but I cannot seem to find any reference to
what driver/device settings I should be using.

I believe my driver is calling the input_report_abs
with the correct values, but I am not 100% sure.  Is
there a utility which will report the values the input
architecture or X is receiving from a device?

Thanks very much for your time,
-Ben Von Handorf
