Not the driver I am working on. It is all in user land. > i would like to encourage everyone to take a look at libusb. > it allows user space applications to communicate with usb > devices via /proc/bus/usb. I don't know libusb. But it seams to be very Linux specific. The driver [1] talks directly to /proc/bus/usb/001/002 like if it was a serial port. Very easy. The problem is that OpenBSD (and maybe the other *BSD) do not have /proc/bus/usb but /dev/usb[0,1] instead. So some parts in pcsc-lite and some parts in the driver must be changed (at least to use libusb instead). > for details on libusb go to www.linux-usb.org (.com ? not sure), > they have a link to it. libusb might work on some *BSD systems, too. I could not find reference for *BSD on www.linux-usb.org. Have you a more specific pointer please?
