Re: [Ftdi-usb-sio-devel] Linux thin client -> usb badge reader

[Thys M. <st...@gm...>]

I think your kernel may be to old for the following to work:
echo 0403 6001 > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/ftdi_sio/new_id, if so,
get the  ftdi_serial driver code, add the VendorID:Product id pair to
the header file,
recompile and modprobe as usual.

Use lsusb -v,
udevmonitor (udevadm monitor --env)
udevinfo, etc. to investigate
