that makes sense, that's probably why probe is never called (the
system doesn't know about device so it doesn't see a need to call
probe). however, I have no idea what to do - I followed all the steps
from the docs I've found, none of them talk about this particular
sitation.
am I missing some module? some alias in /etc/modules.conf? some device
file in /dev?
I have:
jojda:/home/erik# lsmod |grep usb
usb-uhci 20932 0 (unused)
usbcore 50848 1 [cpqpjb usb-uhci]
in /etc/modules.conf:
alias char-major-10-176 cpqpjb
I am quite sure I need uhci since that's what lspci says:
jojda:/home/erik# lspci|grep -i usb
00:07.2 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. UHCI USB (rev 16)
00:07.3 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. UHCI USB (rev 16)
I don't even know where to start looking... is it possible that
usb-uhci just doesn't work and that I need the alternative uhci support
(JE)?
