Hi, I am using linux kernel 2.6.19 ported onto a proprietary hardware. I am connecting a USB Modem that is being recognized by the driver as : "storage card". I did "cat /proc/bus/usb/devices" to find the information about the driver and found these lines: C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=a0 MxPwr=500mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=08(stor.) Sub=06 Prot=50 Driver=usb-storage I checked the same values for another modem which was working good for application: and I got this output: C:* #Ifs= 4 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=500mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=usbserial_generic As you can see, the driver that is loaded in the working case is different from the non-working. Is it possible to force load the drver as usbserial-generic? I tried to dig a little further to dump the following data structure for both the modems and to my surprise all the fields were same except bcdUSB. struct usb_device_descriptor { __u8 bLength; __u8 bDescriptorType; __le16 bcdUSB; __u8 bDeviceClass; __u8 bDeviceSubClass; __u8 bDeviceProtocol; __u8 bMaxPacketSize0; __le16 idVendor; __le16 idProduct; __le16 bcdDevice; __u8 iManufacturer; __u8 iProduct; __u8 iSerialNumber; __u8 bNumConfigurations; } __attribute__ ((packed)); Is there some other place where I can force the kernel to load the driver differently?
