It appears the 3.5 kernel changed it and "hid-generic" is the new driver.
So, use it instead of "generic-usb".

Sure. Every HID device plugged in gets a new fourth number. So if you just
unplug and plug back the same device it will get assigned the next number.

BTW, I failed to reproduce the hidrd-convert problem on a freshly installed
Fedora 16 64 bits so far.
