Quoting MattyJ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

FYI, I have a cheapo TrendNet watchamahookie that reports the same ID
yet uses RTL8187B. Except this stick was kind enough to tell me that:

Actually the stick has nothing to do with it.. like lspci, lsusb gets nothing but the ID from the device. The text info is from a file. /usr/share/misc/usb.ids on my system here. You can put anything you want in there.. like so:
www ~ {512}$ lsusb | grep 05e3
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05e3:0710 Genesys Logic, Inc. USB 2.0 33-in-1 Card Reader
www ~ {513}$ sudo vim /usr/share/misc/usb.ids
[snip editing file]
www ~ {514}$ lsusb | grep 05e3
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05e3:0710 Genesys Logic, Inc. Boo!
