I am not even using the USB ports.
It doesn't matter if you are using them or not, they are being created by the usb core for the next-version of usbfs. They currently are not hooked up to anything properly, but people are working on them to fix that soon. And the number is just a placeholder, it's not a reserved major number. As for what is trying to load the module, I have no idea, it must be some userspace tool... thanks, greg k-h -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
