Correct me if I'm wrong ... this isn't really a usbdevfs problem,
it's that problem with host controller drivers that don't queue
control requests (uhci, usb-uhci).  Yes?  Userspace workarounds
shouldn't be needed any more for 2.5 kernels.

If it's really a usbdevfs problem, what is it, and why hasn't
that been fixed?  I don't recall seeing any bug reports.

I have mailed that often enoug (> 1) ;)
I don't remember any usbfs problems being identified,
though I recall who wanted the "sleep 3" (and why!).


It is nice that 2.5 has it fixed, but I need something for 2.4.21, soon.
Since your SuSE hotplug patches have your workaround, you're OK;
though it'd likely be worth patching more current hotplug RPMs
than those from last January. (Wait a week or so :).

I confess to really disliking the logic that creates and
counts lots of /var/run/hotplug/* tempfiles and sleeping
accordingly. It'd be simpler, and almost as robust, to
just sleep some $RANDOM extra time on 2.4 kernels.
