Hmm, I get a different result from yours. For both this version and the last
one, I get: "Write init1: Input/output error".
This happens when I run the program as my user, and as root. My user is a member
of the operator group, and /dev/ugen0 has rw permissions for operator.
This is on FreeBSD 4-stable (as of yesterday). I also have libusb 0.1.7_1
installed (not that it matters at this time).
I have checked; the receiver is detected as /dev/ugen0, too. My (USB) hardware
is "SiS 5571 USB controller" (this is a Shuttle XPC SS51G) if it matters.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

I'll test it on the 5.1-release machine too.
