devh-usb.so

Driver for USB-compliant human interface devices (HID)

Syntax:

io-hid -d usb [option[,option ...]] ... &

io-hid -d usb [option[,option ...]] ...

Runs on:

Neutrino

Options:

igndev=vid[:did]

Don't attach to the HID device matching the given vendor and device IDs. The vid and did must be hexadecimal vendor and product IDs (e.g. igndev=0x1234:0x5678), as reported by the usb utility.

You can use the igndev option to ignore specific USB HID devices. This allows another USB driver to attach and manage the device. You can specify multiple igndev options.

The did also supports pattern matching to let you specify a range for device IDs for a particular vendor; see the examples below.

upath

The USB stack path. The default is /dev/io-usb/io-usb

verbose

Be verbose.

wait=num

The number of seconds to wait for the USB stack to come up.

Run the USB stack first. Please refer to io-usb for further information.
