-THE /proc/bus/usb/drivers FILE:
--------------------------------
-Each of the USB device drivers linked into your kernel (statically,
-or dynamically using "modprobe") is listed in the "drivers" file.
-Here's an example from one system:
-
- usbdevfs
- hub
- 0- 15: usblp
- usbnet
- serial
- usb-storage
- pegasus
-
-If you see this file, "usbdevfs" and "hub" will always be listed,
-since those are part of the "usbcore" framework.
-
-Drivers that use the USB major number (180) to provide character devices
-will include a range of minor numbers, as shown above for the "usblp"
-(actually "printer.o") module. USB device drivers can of course use any
-major number, but it's easy to use the USB range since there's explicit
-support for subdividing it in the USB device driver framework.

If you say Y here (and to "/proc file system support" in the "File
