First of all, could you please explain what kind of device are you trying to use (if possible, with device/vendor IDs)? Is it a mass-storage device (such as an external disk/DVD/flash memory), or is it something else? If it is, then why do you need a parameter to unusual_devs.h ? What kind of behavior do you need to control from userspace? Why is none of the existing quirks useful for your device? Maybe what you want is to add a new quirk flag, and there is nothing wrong AFAIK with adding code to handle that particular flag. If, on the other hand, your device is not a mass-storage device, then nothing you do to unusual_devs.h might be useful. That file is only relevant for mass-storage devices. A quick description of your environment (target kernel version, distribution, etc) won't go amiss. -- perl -e '$x=2.4;print sprintf("%.0f + %.0f = %.0f\n",$x,$x,$x+$x);' ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
