Hello,
I had to add ugly hack to create /dev/bus/usb devices (major 189) using mdev.
After reading bug#1329 [1], I thought I will be able to do it without any hack, but I cannot understand if this is supported. I tried latest snapshot.
A fix for this was posted in the mailing list [2], explicit handling of bus/usb, but looks like I must specify all buses inside the configuration.
What I expect is that devices with major 189 will be created, I prefer they will be created at /dev/bus/usb/BUSNUM/DEVNUM, but they can be created at any other location so I can symlink them into this location.
Can this be done using latest snapshot?
Regards,
Alon.
