I have looked into the HID code, but don't see any place where a device name is given.  When I press a key, however, the driver does respond and I track the response all the way to input_event() in input.c.  What I would like to is for my user-space application to receive the input , i.e. be able to read the key that was pressed. Under Ubuntu kernel 2.6.17, the device works fine.

The kernel doesn't make device nodes. Do you have udev properly installed?
Is your udev version able to work with a kernel that old?
