Hi,

oh, shiny new device files. but why? /proc/bus/usb/00X/00Y
works fine for me. why the changes? will usbfs alias /proc/bus/usb
be obsoleted?

also are there any differences between those two files?
or are they exchangeable?

also what about the hotplug interface and udev?
I hope I can still count on $DEVICE being the
/proc/bus/usb/ device when my hotplug script
is being called?

and I hope libusb will continue to have filename
and dirname as those /proc/bus/usb/<dirname>/<filename>
so I can use it to reconstruct the path, and open the
right file. (I got a real strange bug report by a debian
user with dirname "3" instead of "003" and filename "5"
instead of "005", but he libusb code looks fine).

In short: I'm confused by the change / new device files.
please help.

Regards, Andreas
