Hey, I feel like a jerk asking the list this question, but I have looked high
and low, and found little or nothing.

I have a device that is getting a bad idVendor and idProduct in Linux, but not
in windows.*

I think that sniffing the USB connection would help me figure it out, but after
30 google searches, all I find is "snoopy pro for windows" and "that was
implemented in the Linux USB stack long ago".  I find that encouraging, except
no one explains what 'that' is, or how to use 'that'.

That being said, is there a FAQ on how to sniff USB comminucations?  Is there
some prahse or name for that ability I should be googleing for?  Is sniffing USB
modeled after sniffing, say ethernet, so If i look up one, I will get at least a
rough idea of how sniffing ethernet works?


Thanks for any help you guys can give me.  Like I said, I feel like a n00b
asking dumb questions, but I'm out of rope.

P.S. I never know if I should post to "user" or "developer" lists. Sorry if this
is an inapproprate question for this list.

*In order to check out this problem, I wanted to check out how Linux connected
to, and enumerated devices on hot-plugging, and on startup.   I've checked
/var/log/messages, and I have mess with /proc/bus/usb/devices, and am not
getting the info I need.
