Re: USBDUX problems (it works fine on 2.4 kernel but not on 2.6)

Interesting. I never had any problems with that. In particular with 
usb_bulk_msg. But it seems so that it depends on the actual firmware 
which is in the usb device. It has to be quite "responsive". In the 
usbdux devices the endpoint zero responses come from a hardwired core 
which responds virtually immediately. That's also the reason why I like 
the FX2 by cypress. You don't have to worry about EP0 calls. It's done 
by its core.
