Hi Raphael,

you missed to add an entry in drivers/tripplite-hid.c
->tripplite_claim() for that ;-)
and an entry in the hotplug script for the sake of completion.
thanks for the patch. I'll look into commiting it into the trunk, and
possibly in sid, depending on the next release date.

I don't know much about TL devices, and I've not dug the ml, but
Charles might have an answer to that.

never heard about it.
do you have any info on it, like the name of the windows software
provided, or the protocol used, ... ?

cheers,
Arnaud
