Yes, I can whip up a driver for this that uses the generic interface in a few minutes. But, if Mostafa is stuck at RHEL 6, there's nothing that we can do here to help out at all, sorry. Mostafa, can you try a recent kernel.org release (like 3.6.2?) If so, I'll be glad to give you a driver to test with. thanks, greg k-h -- 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
