Description spamjam 2004-08-25 04:41:18 UTC

In 2.6 kernel series /proc/scsi/usb-storage structure has changed a little bit, so pam_usb.so cannot find your usb device to look for serial.

Try "<this_patch.sh> test" to find out if your system has this problem.

Due to additional complications with usb pen serial number on my system I changed the code so it queries for Vendor ID.

If "<this_patch.sh> test" tells you your usb pen serial number you can try:
replace "Vendor" "Serial Number" -- <this_patch.sh> ( case sensitive) to use Serial Number (this case is untested)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.use pam_usb whith check_device=1
2.
3.
