What is it supposed to do? Is it supposed to function like a USB disk drive, so you can transfer mp3 files between it and your PC? Does the fact that it has a firmware update capacity mean that it _needs_ a firmware update in order to work with a PC? > So if I can help in any kind of way, i would be delighted ;) > > relevant /proc/bus/usb/devices : > > T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 4 Spd=12 MxCh= 0 > D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1 > P: Vendor=0471 ProdID=1125 Rev= 0.83 > S: Manufacturer=Nike, Inc. > S: Product=psa[128max > C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=c0 MxPwr=100mA > I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=01 Prot=ff Driver=(none) That Cls=ff(vend.) means the device uses a vendor-specific USB protocol. Without knowing that protocol, there's no way to communicate with the device -- unless the vendor's just happens to be identical to an existing standard protocol (which occurs more often than you might think). > /var/log/kern.log : > Jan 13 19:31:42 [...] kernel: hub.c: new USB > device 00:07.2-1, assigned address 6 > Jan 13 19:31:42 [...] kernel: > usb.c: USB device 6 (vend/prod 0x471/0x1125) is not claimed by any > active driver. > > > dmesg : > hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-1, assigned address 6 > usb.c: USB device 6 (vend/prod 0x471/0x1125) is not claimed by any > active driver. This means that none of the existing drivers recognizes the vendor/product combination as one they already know how to handle. > What can I do to help ? Answering the questions above will be a start. Maybe the vendor or manufacturer can supply you with information about how the USB interface on the device is intended to work: what protocol it uses and so on.
