This sounds a bit strange.

hidraw shouldn't be making too much difference in the case you describe.
hidraw is basically just a mean of relaying HID events to userspace so
that any driver/application in userspace can access them. But magicmouse
driver is written completely in kernelspace.

Does anything on your system have /dev/hidraw* nodes open? (you could
check by lsof).


right now I see
/dev/hidraw0,1,2,3

./lsof | grep /dev
(showing bluetooth)

bluetooth 2020 root 0u CHR 1,3 0t0 2551
/dev/null
bluetooth 2020 root 1u CHR 1,3 0t0 2551
/dev/null
bluetooth 2020 root 2u CHR 1,3 0t0 2551
/dev/null
bluetooth 2020 root 14u CHR 10,62 0t0 3895
/dev/rfkill

I can try a bisect on this and see.
A list of which patches you have applied would also be helpful. The
standard 2.6.33.* kernels predate the merge of the hid-magicmouse
driver, but the dmesg entry you pasted makes it look like the driver was
present.

I'm using the latest HEAD, without any patches
applied. (I'll send a post with dmesg after this post).
