Hi Greg, In FreeBSD 8 and later there is no problem about that. LibUSB 0.1 and 1.0 are now part of the base system. Three USB API's are offered: libusb v0.1 (100% Compatible with other OS) libusb v1.0 (100% Compatible with other OS) libusb v2.0 (Currently BSD specific) You can use this manpage for reference if you have any doubts about functions which you can use: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=libusb&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+8.1- RELEASE&format=html --HPS -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
