Hi Bjørn,

I didn't recognize that new modes where introduced for existing devices. To me
it looked like they where introduced to support previously unsupported devices.
Knowing that, I wouldn't have submitted the patch.

I saw that you already updated usbmode to support the missing modes. Once the
package is updated accordingly my "patch" can be reverted.

Kind regards,
Julian

Kind regards,
Julian
