2.4.5 -- no patches or anything added.
That might have been a fluke or a problem with usbview refreshing, as I
just tested it again and it showed up properly.

Jun 20 17:14:58 forsaken kernel: usb.c: USB device 4 (vend/prod
0x6666/0x667) is not claimed by any active driver.

The only variable is the device number (based upon where I plug the thing
in).

This is after using modprobe and after configuring usbmgr for the specific
vendor device (not that I'd expect that to make any difference).

I'm a bit confused here.  If the devices identifies itself as a HID
device and hid.o still doesn't know to bind to it, what does determine
what hid will bind with?
