I have a basic kernel driver. I have written the open, probe, disconnect, release, init, exit functions of the module. when I plug the gamepad in, usbhid gets it. I tried to echo the id (5-1:1.0) to the usbhid unbind, and it works. but when I try to echo it to my loaded module's bind, and it says no such device... what is the problem? is there a way to tell the kernel that my driver should claim the device automatically? thanks. -- 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
