ok

how about getting usb hid descriptor, parsing and dumping it? check out 
libusbhid - man usbhid(3). it might be that all you need to do is to 
create hid report and send it to the device. libusbhid(3) will help you 
with that.

well comment out 'device uhid' from your kernel config and rebuilding 
the kernel should do the trick.
