Greetings,

Usually I detect them by attaching CF->PCMCIA adapter to my laptop, but would much rather be able to use my usb-CF adapter.
This would also alot easier to explain to users which are having issues (unsupported/unknown id's).

Any good suggestions on this?

Best wishes
Kristoffer

What sort of "id" are we talking about here ?

Manufacturer and product id. Since the CF needs to be known to be used as an ide-cs device.
