Hi there,

Gaming mostly (supertuxkart anyone?), but some others (including myself) want to use it as a movement detection (one exists for the IBM/Lenovo Thinkpads).
Digging into platform drivers, I've found that the hdaps and also the lis3lv02d drivers report the axes via polldev, and since I don't want to break userspace, I'm left with two choices:
1 - Keep sysfs entry and adapt it to properly report direction, and no polled device.
2 - Keep sysfs entry and adapt it to properly report direction, and also a polled device.
Let me know your decision so I can send an updated patch.
