Marc's script looks nice, but I was waiting to get a resolution to the
shell script/device/kernel issue before making some suggestions. Looks
like the script you attached is an updated version that cleverly works
around the issue.
Running the script no longer results in a traceback; I get results now.
However, not all the results I expected. My expectations may be awry due
to not knowing what the script outputs for other N-trig-based hardware.
Here's what I get:
Found device(s):
SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: /dev/input/event6
N-Trig Pen: /dev/input/event9
Here's what I would expect (Henrik can correct my assumptions):
Found device(s):
SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: /dev/input/event6
N-Trig Pen: /dev/input/event9
N-Trig MultiTouch: /dev/input/event10
N-Trig Touchscreen: /dev/input/event11
Unfortunately the python code is not correct - I get false positives on my
machine. It seems the split is over word, whereas the shell script splits on bits.
Thanks for the review and the update which included checking the LONG_BIT
of the underlying system. I have fixed and updated the Python script
accordingly, attached to this message. Enjoy once again!
