Try the package I just posted ... it incorporates updated versions of your patches (I've seen it hotplug mice and keyboards without a kernel patch, and has your joystick product/vendor codes), and has lots of other cleanup.

I tried the patches, but hotplug didn't work at all:

I have usbutil-0.7 installed, is this enough? the usb.agent script mentions usbutils package bigger than 0.7, but from the linux-usb webpage I was not able to get a newer version, where is it?

Without usbmodules program the hotplugging didn't work at all for scanner (epson perfection 1200u, did work before), nor mouse/joystick nor usb-storage.

I didn't have the time to debug the script, but it looks like if the usbmodules program is installed but does not take the --mapfile parameter the hotplug process does not work at all.

Best wishes

Norbert

Additional information: With usbmodules from the cvs usbutils package (supports --mapfile) invoking usbmodules --device .... always gives me the empty string. Should it be like this?
