Since version 2.6.29rc1 querying cleware USb devices no longer works.
2.6.28 works fine. 2.6.29-rc2 also no longer works.

the is the FAILURE situation (2.6.29-rc*):
open("/dev/usb/hiddev0", O_RDWR)        = 3
ioctl(3, HIDIOCGDEVINFO, 0xbf90c0d8)    = 0
ioctl(3, HIDIOCAPPLICATION, 0)          = -6291455
ioctl(3, HIDIOCGSTRING, 0x804e2c0)      = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
Please try this patch.
Yes, that fixes it! Thanks!
