| I have a Centos 5 machine which I've just compiled the 3.10.4 kernel
| on (remembering to set CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED) because I needed new
| rtlwifi drivers for my rtl8192cu device.
|
| So far, so good. It seems to work.
|
| Except /proc/bus/usb doesn't exist anymore. USB_DEVICEFS has been
| removed. An older kernel (3.2.9) says
|
| Usbfs entries are files and not character devices; usbfs can't
| handle Access Control Lists (ACL) which are the default way to
| grant access to USB devices for untrusted users of a desktop
| system.
|
| The usbfs functionality is replaced by real device-nodes
| managed by
| udev. These nodes lived in /dev/bus/usb and are used by
| libusb.
|
| Has anyone got udev on C5 working with this new kernel so my USB
| devices show?
|
| (It's not causing me any real issues, other than "lsusb" nor working;
| just curious!)

You are *severely* deviating from the stock CentOS and are likely not going to get much help. There could be numerous dependencies to sort out as to why this isn't working such as the interfaces from lsusb into the newer kernel. Essentially, you're on your own buddy. ;)
