Hi,
I've tried to merge USB device major/minor suggestions from
Harold, Vojtech, and Brad Hards. In doing so, I have a few
questions and corrections before I send this to HPA.
a. Do we want 10:32-47 to be /dev/usb/mouseN or /dev/hidmouseN
or ...what? Have we already been assigned this range?
b. Do we want 10:48-63 to be /dev/usb/inputN or /dev/usb/evdevN
or /dev/inputN or ...what? Have we already been assigned
this range?
c. Or should /dev/inputN be 10:48-63 and /dev/evdevN be 10:64-79?
I'm confused.
This patch removes 180:16-31 for usbmouseN and 180:32-47 for
the EZUSB firmware loader.
It adds 180:80-95 for dc2xx cameras. We have been assigned this
range, right?
The Mustek DC 800 camera driver is using 10:171, which is
already assigned to something else. Henning, where did you
get this minor dev number?
dabusb isn't listed as having been assigned a minor number.
I thought that this was because it's an experimental/sample
USB device driver. Deti, does it need to be assigned a
real minor number?
Let's try to get this all cleaned up.
Thanks for your help...
