Hi,
i'm trying to use a guillemot corp. Hercules DJ peripherial in a vmware virtual
machine running on ubuntu lucid 10.0.4. amd64
To be able to use it in vmware I have to disconnect it from usbhid.
I've tried to make a rule for udev, but it doesn't work because in version
10.0.4 the OPTION ignore_device has been removed.
I've tried to disconnect peripherial from ushdid doing (usb plugged in 4-2:1.0)
cd /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usbhid
echo '4-2:1.0' >unbind
then it disconnects from usbhid
and then i go to vmware and select to connect the device to the virtual
machine, and vmware does not alert that the device is being used by another
driver (usbhid), ok, but then udev remounts the device automatically.
I think it wouldn't happen if ignore_device was still an available OPTION,
writting this rule:
ATTRS{idVendor}=="06f8", OPTIONS+="ignore_device"
ATTR{idVendor}=="06f8", OPTIONS+="ignore_device"
What can I do to disconnect the device and avoid udev mounts the device?
Would next udev version allow to use ignore_device??
Is there any patch to reactivate this functionality?
Thanks.
Pere Joseph
