Subject: Re: usbmc seems broken

Upgraded to: 2.6.32.7-37.fc12.i686.PAE

Still no joy. Plugging in the meter gives:

Feb  4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: new full speed USB device
using ohci_hcd and address 2
Feb  4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: New USB device found,
idVendor=05e6, idProduct=2100
Feb  4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: New USB device strings:
Mfr=2, Product=3, SerialNumber=1
Feb  4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: Product: 2100 Multimeter
Feb  4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: Manufacturer: KEITHLEY INSTRUMENTS
Feb  4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: SerialNumber: 1160791
Feb  4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Feb  4 08:27:04 localhost kernel: usbcore: registered new interface
driver usbtmc

But "cat /dev/usbtmc0" gives:
cat: /dev/usbtmc0: Connection timed out

And in the logs:
Feb  4 08:27:35 localhost kernel: usbtmc 4-1:1.0: Unable to read data,
error -110

The very old driver still works:

Feb  4 08:31:02 localhost kernel: USBTMC: MKDEV
Feb  4 08:31:02 localhost kernel: USBTMC: CDEV_ADD f900000 1
Feb  4 08:31:02 localhost kernel: usbcore: registered new interface
driver USBTMC

[root@...2 usbtmc-module]# cat /dev/usbtmc0
Minor Number    Manufacturer    Product Serial Number
001     KEITHLEY INSTRUMENTS    2100 Multimeter 1160791
