Jul 30 13:19:55 localhost kernel: usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
in messages and got a brand new
Bus 002 Device 007: ID 6000:0001

can’t get device qualifier: Operation not permitted
can’t get debug descriptor: Operation not permitted
this is not much helpful (yet)..
The
idVendor 0x6000
idProduct 0x0001
bcdDevice 0.01
iManufacturer 16
iProduct 32
iSerial 64
tells
me that this is actually some common chip / device. Still I doubt a
generic driver to be around. Shall check with Fedora 9 too.
Now testing via VMWare workstation on XP .. Just to be sure that the device is working..
–>
And VMWare installation fails with a blue screen .. Maybe it is vmware
or worse it is the device itself .. I shall test this on a native
environment .. Maybe that Toshiba Satellite notebook.. Hmm..
