But you didn't post the dmesg log; you posted the system log. And evidently your /etc/syslog.conf was set up so that syslogd didn't put debug-level messages in the system log; hence none of the interesting stuff was included. > Is it a case of a device not really complying to the USB specs? Without the debugging log information it's hard to be certain. But overall I'd say no. It's a case of a device following a vendor-specific specification instead of one of the standard class specifications. That's perfectly okay according to the USB spec, but it means that without a vendor-specific driver you can't use the device. > It is always a pity not being able to use a hardware piece. If the debugging log shows the device isn't usable, perhaps you can exchange it for a different brand.
