Hotplug doen't know my device

Hotplug doen't know my device

[Daniel Draes]

Hi folks,

I am trying to get a DataFab USB SmartMedia and CF-Card reader to work. All
I get in the syslog is:

Jun 27 19:57:23 mail /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: ... no drivers for USB product
7c4/a005/10d

I like to get the usb-storage driver up an running for this device. That
should
work. What do I have to do?

Tanks for help!

Does this device work with the Linux usb-storage driver if you load the
driver by hand before plugging in the device?

thanks,

Nope, it doesn't. I guess I have to tell him somewhere to use the storage driver
for this device, but where and how?>

Try asking on the linux-usb-users mailing list if this device is even
supported on Linux by the usb-storage drivers.  The usb-storage
maintainer can answer that question much better than I can.

thanks,

If the usb-storage driver doesn't claim it when manually loaded, it
probably doesn't work.

At least, the device does not advertise compatability in its descriptors.
Some devices are still spec-compliant, even when their descriptors aren't,
but chances are the device simply won't work.

Well, it works in Windoze without installing any driver. So I guess it
should work with the storage driver.

Maybe... maybe not.  Windows ships with more drivers than just the
"standards" ones, so there is no way to tell.

If it doesn't work with the usb-storage driver loaded manually, then it
makes sense that the hotplug mechanism doesn't try to load it.

Let's start with this: send the device descriptor dump from
/proc/bus/usb/devices when the device is attached, and let's take this off
the hotplug mailing list until we get it sorted out.
