IIRC in the previous USB1, it printed a message like uath0: <TRENDnet TEW-504UB wireless LAN adaptor> on usbus? whenever a device is attached even if the device source doesn't print it but it's not now in USB2. I have no ideas it's a intention or a regression of USB2. regards, Weongyo JeongReceived on Tue May 19 2009 - 03:07:07 UTC
