Well, my first question is, does there exist a tool for USB that let's you
view the raw return from the usb probing? I want to see what this device
is actually identifying itself as. Actual numeric vendor IDs and product
IDs are the sort of thing I'm after. Something a whole lot more detailed
that usbdevs, please. Even the dmesg listing (as I show above) hasn't got
the numbers and tails I need.
Hi Chuck,
On list sane-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (A mostly Linux using
crownd though not just, some BSD) They mostly seem to rec. some
(free I assume) MS$ comparible .exe prog for snatching USB traffic
to then analyse / develop for *IX drivers. I don't remember prog name,
but http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/sane-devel

Thanks much for the URL, I will definitely look it up. I'm a bit surprised
that the SANE folks, who I took to be scanner-oriented, should be
interested in graphic tablets.

Err, they're not far as I know, but they often seem to want to grab
byte streams on scanners to then analyse for Sane. I guess what
one wants to later use the grabbed traffic for doesnt matter, so
long as one has the traffic grabbed for analysis ?

Well ... OK, I'm having just a bit of a hard time seeing how that would
help me in trying to get my graphic tablet working on FreeBSD for my dear
old gimp, but I know darn well you're right more often than I am, so I
will give a good look at that list anyhow.


Is it a feeling of the usb kernel developers involved that thjey ....

Maybe current@ or usb@ might know more than hackers@


Good suggestion, I'll act on it, thanks
