I 'm not 100% certain the attached patch is right way of doing it, but I
noticed I needed a /dev/usb6 in order for 'usbdevs -v' to show all USB
devices on my system.
Surely I can create extra nodes by hand, but I was wondering if it makes sense
to add one or more /dev/usb? nodes to the default install.
Without commenting on the overall need for this change, in my opinion it
would make more sense to add usb devices in pairs, since virtually all
usb bus hardware (that I've seen anyway) comes two and two together.
