Subscribe a gmail account to the mailing list, add a tag for it, and then use gmail to search. Or just subscribe to the list, and archive everything and use good search tools to find things (mairix works very well). I do both and it seems to handle all of the different situations (the gmail one is fun to play with, but a pain to get patches out of). > In this case, you probably mean something like this: > > --- usb-2.6.orig/include/linux/device.h > +++ usb-2.6/include/linux/device.h > @@ -404,7 +404,8 @@ extern void firmware_unregister(struct s > > /* debugging and troubleshooting/diagnostic helpers. */ > #define dev_printk(level, dev, format, arg...) \ > - printk(level "%s %s: " format , (dev)->driver ?

It definitely will solve the problem I was referring to. Yes, that's it. I'll go add that to my trees, thanks. Hm, need to check that the device is attached to a bus, because that's not always true... thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ linux-usb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
