Description Rolle 2011-05-10 10:03:01 UTC
Description of problem:
My LCD-Display/IR Receiver-Device is not correct identified from the kernel.
It is an: 'Soundgraph iMON LCD/IR'
but identified is: 'Soundgraph iMON VFD/IR'


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 15 Beta, Kernel 2.6.38

How reproducible:
every time


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot Fedora 15 Beta
2. lsusb in console
  
Actual results:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 15c2:0038 SoundGraph Inc. GD01 MX VFD Display/IR Receiver


Expected results:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 15c2:0038 SoundGraph Inc. GD01 MX LCD Display/IR Receiver


Additional info:
The device is built-in the case 'Silverstone GD01MX (SST-GD01B-MXR)'. I don't know the correct state of kernel-supporting of this device. I hope this is fully supported.

Comment 1 Josh Boyer 2011-09-27 19:54:06 UTC
The lsusb output that includes the string you're concerned about comes from the usb.ids file, which is provides by the hwdata package.  The kernel driver correctly lists the device in the comments as LCD:

        /* SoundGraph iMON OEM LCD (IR & LCD) */
        { USB_DEVICE(0x15c2, 0x0038) },

You should probably report this upstream here:

http://www.linux-usb.org/usb-ids.html

For now, I'll move this to the hwdata package as that is what provides the usb.ids file in Fedora.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 16:43:38 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 3 Rolle 2013-06-14 23:25:12 UTC
In Fedora 19 prerelease it worked now as espected.

Thank you
