i've been out of the loop for a while, and i'm hoping this problem has been solved.
i use a flash programmer that's based on the MPSSE engine of an ft4232h -- it uses the ft2232_spi.c driver in flashrom. i also use USB-to-serial converters (often two at a time) that are ftdi-based. if i'm using the serial converters, i can't then use the programmer -- i get an error due to conflict with the kernel ftdi_sio module. in practice, i plug the programmer into one laptop, and the serial modules into another, and ssh between them, but that's a fairly heavyweight workaround. is there a way, using API calls from either libftdi or libusb, that i can tell the kernel driver to not take ownership of my ftdi-based programmer? paul =--------------------- paul fox, p...@foxharp.boston.ma.us (arlington, ma, where it's 15.4 degrees) -- libftdi - see http://www.intra2net.com/en/developer/libftdi for details.
