Hi,
how can I find out whether support for a particular USB device is in the kernel?

2.6.11 isn't recognizing it automatically and it isn't recognized by
lsusb. I wonder if 2.6.13 might recognize it, but I'd rather find that
out before actually compiling the thing.

I've been trying to find out where (in the kernel) could be the list
of devices that a driver wants to handle.... all I found was that that
list eventually get's publicized in /lib/modules/.../modules.usbmap by
depmod, but I'm still buffled as to where that info originates... must
be somewhere in the source tree or in some config files.

What I'm actually working with here is the Sigma SD10 digital SLR. The
authoritative source for linux digital camera support,
http://www.teaser.fr/~hfiguiere/linux/digicam.html, lists the Sigma
SD10 as a would be mass-storage device. Not sure how Hubert got his
information, but  it looks like it's either not working, or just needs
the usb_storage driver budged so it knows it is a standard usb mass
storage device.

Just for reference, I have:
Vendor id: 1003
Device id: 0100

But, interface class id is : 255 -- not 008 as for simple usb storage devices.

Given the report in
http://www.teaser.fr/~hfiguiere/linux/digicam.html,  is it possible
that this is still a usb_storage device? And if so, where in the
kernel source should I look to find out whether it has been added or
possibly to add it in my self?

I appreciate any pointers. Thanks.
Timor.
