> I'm still curious about whether it should be possible to do this through > adds to usbd.conf No. The usbd daemon only decides on what to run in userland after the device has been attached to. What would be possible is store the information on what drivers to attach to what in a kernel loadable module that can be unloaded at any time. However, that approach opens up a whole can of worms: How to decide on which driver to use, how to make sure that the kernel does not fall over while the kernel module is not loaded (in between the 'kldunload' and 'kldload'), etc. Nick -- n_hibma@webweaving.org n_hibma@freebsd.org USB project http://www.etla.net/~n_hibma/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
