Created attachment 934934 [details] Screen shot of add hardware dialog Description of problem: Over in bug 1135488 I was asked to add this as a separate bug, so here it is. The Add Hardware button for a USB host device pops up a dialog box to be used to select which device to add. Most devices have a description, but some do not even though lsusb does show a description. For example: zooty> lsusb Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:8000 Intel Corp. Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:8008 Intel Corp.

On the other hand, the popup does show the Arduino Leonardo description.

The code should probably fallback to the FROM_DATABASE attributes if the ENC ones aren't there.
Interestingly, if I use the Virtual Machine > Redirect USB menu item, the description for the webcam does show up.
Now fixed upstream: commit 3ef77a544d4313cdfe257717708548f57e6db971 Author: Lubomir Rintel <lkundrak> CommitDate: 2014-09-15 15:41:28 +0200 node_device_udev: Try harder to get human readable vendor:product The manufacurer and product from USB device itself are usually not particularly useful -- they tend to be missing, or ugly (all-uppercase, padded with spaces, etc.). Prefer what's in the usb id database and fall back to descriptors only if the device is too new to be in database. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1138887 git describe: v1.2.8-130-g3ef77a5
