Because that's how big it is? (= how much info it contains). > Seriously, does this break anything because the file size is reported as > 0? I can change the size to be the same size as the "struct > usb_device_descriptor" like previous kernels if it has broken anything. Yes, it breaks the user space driver for the Alcatel speedtouch adsl modem. The driver scans the files in /proc/bus/usb trying to find the modem. It checks whether the file is the same size as "struct usb_device_descriptor" (sanity check I suppose) before reading it. All the best, Duncan. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
