What part other than a small image library which was originally distributed by
Red Hat as GPL is available as source code?
It is still a proprietary product - just because it is free (beer) doesn't make

VMWare need to make the modifications, OR distributors need to ensure it wo

Not for me to say. The situation of /proc/bus/usb vs (/dev/usb/usb +
