Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.24

The ti_usb_3410_5052 driver fails to recognize a very popular JTAG
emulator made by TI (MSP FET430).

This appears to be a new bug in Hardy, it worked fine in Gutsy.

I downloaded the 2.6.24 vanilla source from kernel.org and compiled just
this driver.  The vanilla driver does work with this device.

I downloaded the linux-source-2.6.24 package and pulled the driver out
of this.  I confirmed that this ubuntu specific version of the driver
fails to load the device in question.

There are only a couple lines different between the vanilla driver and
the ubuntu version.  The problem lines seem to be:

267,268c267,268
<       .num_interrupt_in       = 1,
<       .num_bulk_in            = 1,
---
>       .num_interrupt_in       = NUM_DONT_CARE,
>       .num_bulk_in            = NUM_DONT_CARE,

I'm not sure what the reasoning was behind changing the standard driver,
but this is one case in which it broke a popular device which had
previously worked.

Thanks,
Steve
