To do that you now need to keep a separate dynmic list of ids that you also need to check, and clean up when shut down, it's not as "simple" as you might think. Not impossible, we do it for lots of other places, and the hid core does handle dynamic quirks as I pointed out, so you should be fine. If people have questions about this, please ask them on the linux-input mailing list, where the HID developers are at. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
