Ok, i will do some other tests. In every case I notice a different behaviour when I UNplug my USB-dongle on a Win98 SO and on a Linux ones.
In Win98 when I inform OS of the unplug (via task-bar USB-handler icon) the bliking led on the USB-dongle stop to blink. In linux when I unmount the USB-dongle the led continue to blink. I presume that Win "un-power" the usb-device, while linux doesn't do this. Could be this cause an impact on the successive plugin on the USB-controller ?

Why do you care about usb device numbers? They just increment until they wrap around. No userspace stuff should need to know this information. thanks, greg k-h __________________________________________________________________ TISCALI ADSL Solo con Tiscali Adsl navighi senza limiti e telefoni senza canone Telecom a partire da 19,95 Euro/mese.
