Is your usbfs mounted? you should have an entry similiar to this in your
fstab:
----------
none            /proc/bus/usb    usbfs  auto         0 0
----------
and that gives you the /proc/bus/usb/devices entries. Most userland
usb device drivers (libusb - scanners, ptp digital cameras) need the
/proc/bus/usb hierachy to work.
The usb endpoint list is a functional difference between the 8187 and 8187b.
(it runs to 0c for the 8187b, and does not have a 02 entry which the 8187 uses).
