the reason for this was: the kernel does usb monitoring and told us by running /sbin/hotplug "there is a new usb device" and included the path in /proc/bus/usb. with libusb there was no way to map that path to the libusb structures. we would need to parse the path for host and device number, than have libusb scan the bus, enumerate all devices and look for the device we want. not nice.
