Description of problem: I'm trying to run usbview in F17, but it fails because of missing /proc/bus/usb/devices. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): usbview-1.1-7.fc17.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1.usbview 2. 3. Actual results: Error popup: "Can not open the file /proc/bus/usb/devices Verify that you have USB compiled into your kernel, have USB core modules, and have the usbdevfs filesystem mounted." Expected results: Additional info: I tried to run the "Configure dialog" in usbview by using /sys/bus/usb/devices instead of /proc/bus/usb/devices, but then usbview hangs up in the configure dialog.
I confirm bug. Need repare program or remove it from repositories.
This has been annoying me for a while too, so I've decided it is time to step in and fix this, expect an updated package fixing this soon.
While at it I've also ported usbview to gtk3 :) Update is on its way now.
