Step 0 should be to figure out *why* the generic driver isn't working,
because you'll need that information to fix the existing driver or
writing a new one.

When you say "not working", how exactly does it fail? Does it not
even get seen by the operating system?  Does it get seen, but not
as a HID input device?  Does it get registered as a HID, but touches
and taps don't get detected?
