Stupid question, have you tried plugging the device in to verify it is indeed not supported? I have a Logitech headset with USB vendor:device ID 046d:0a12 (yours is 046d:0a01) and it works like a charm. I believe the device works using its own protocol and embedded firmware, it does not need a driver. Not sure how the device exposes the audio/input functionality to the OS yet but it does.

USB drivers are free to bind to devices based on USB class, not on VID/PID (and a lot of class drivers actually do that). -- Jiri Kosina SUSE Labs, Novell Inc. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ |
