Hi Toni, Thanks a lot for the information. My device is the one which supports control transfers only thus i understand that for a second device i need to use /dev/ugen1 and so on. Does that mean, i need to explictly make a node /dev/ugen1 and /dev/ugen2 and so on for every newly added USB device using MAKEDEV script. Please advise me , if there exist some better way of handling the situation. Is there some sort of modification that i can make to libusb to handle the situation. Thanks and regards Jitendra Toni Andjelkovic <toni@soth.at> wrote: On Sun, Mar 28 2004 (02:51:56 -0800), jitendra pande wrote: > My application uses libusb for iinteracting with the usb devices... > libusb on freeBSD 4.8 tries to find /debv/ugen0, /dev/ugen1 and so > on....hence couldn't able to detect more then one device. ... > FreeBSD 4.8 and FreeBSD 5.0 Note that the port version of libusb (0.1.7_1) ignores device endpoints (/dev/ugenX.Y), so it may be necessary to find and open them by yourself. Also note that opening the control endpoint (/dev/ugen0) instead will prevent libusb from finding the device, because FreeBSD allows the control endpoint to be open only once: usb_os_find_devices: couldn't open device /dev/ugen0: Device busy Also note that on 5.x (or -CURRENT) there are other problems to watch out for: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/63375 Cheers, Toni _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
