Hi, I've got a GW Instek function generator (AFG-2225) that _appears_ like it should be a CDC-ACM device, but it seems to have a bug in it's descriptor. The same bug as Steven Ackerman had in this thread: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.general/71225 (lsusb -v output at the bottom of this mail) However, unlike Steven, I can't fix the descriptor. (I guess GW Instek devs copied the same bad example code from renesas?) I tried "modprobe cdc-acm but other than a warning that the vid/pid args were unused, nothing happened. I don't have /dev/ttyACM* or /dev/serial/by-id/* and dmesg just shows...

Those drivers are an .INF file only, with the following lines indicating that at least as far as they're concerned, the new and old devices are the same. (Old device listed as working here: http://www.tablix.org/~avian/blog/archives/2013/05/gw_instek_afg_2005/ %DESCRIPTION1%=DriverInstall, USB\VID_2184&PID_0011 %DESCRIPTION1%=DriverInstall, USB\VID_2184&PID_001C Is there anything I can do to get this to turn up as an ACM device in linux?
