UDEV rule for uploading firmware
Quoted 4 lines · Kay Sievers
SUSE already disabled usbfs in the kernel, as it is no longer needed today and can't handle ACL's needed for multi-user setups. Other distros will need to do the same, when we ship a "pam_console"-successor along with HAL.
Does USB access from VMware products work on SUSE? If so, how?
Do you know any other packages that rely on old-style /proc/bus/usb (e.g., for /proc/bus/usb/devices)? How can they be taught to do the right thing?

Device node access is transparent through libusb, it just looks up /dev/bus/usb before falling back to /proc/bus/usb. /proc/bus/usb/devices is deprecated for a long time now and sysfs contains all the needed information.
