Synology - no hidraw support

[uowiec]

Hi all I am running Home Assistant in a Docker container on a Synology server running DSM 7 OS. Unfortunately, it does not support the hidraw interface, only the hiddev. Is it possible to add support for hiddev to your integration, beside to hidraw? Or maybe you konw a hack how to add the hidraw support to DSM OS?

Some details on my configuration

Exactly same issue. I tried to enable support usb on synology, but no success.

It seems, that synology will never support hidraw. So I ended up with using HAOS virtual machine.
