Time is not on my side. I have got OMRON BX35F's. (4.2 GENERIC #338) /bsd: uhidev1 at uhub3 port 1 configuration 1 interface 0 /bsd: /bsd: uhidev1: OMRON BX35F, rev 1.10/0.07, addr 2, iclass 3/0 /bsd: uhid0 at uhidev1: input=64, output=16, feature=0 Could please somebody enlighten me if usb upses need any special treatment from kernel or it is all just about libusb (like bluetooth afaik)? > 1.

What I have meant here is that I do _NOT_ want to run any not-in-the-baseXX.tgz TCP services. Whether or not it is practical - that is another question :) Sorry for the noise if any.
