Note, I do not know python well, if at all, so I just had to take your word for most of these :) I don't like the usb.ids error message that happens here, it's not essential that that file be found, especially given that most distros do not ship it anymore as they have switched over to the hw database format. So maybe we can just drop the "error" as the tool does work without it, or look for the hwids data instead? thanks, greg k-h
