Hi. 2009/2/6 Peter Alcibiades <palcibiades-first@yahoo.co.uk>:
I've a couple of usb dataloggers on order, which are said to be incompatible with Linux. They record events, and then you plug them into the usb port to use a windows only software package to pull the accumulated records off them.
Without really knowing how much of a task this might be, I'm wondering about using a usb logger to catch the messages.
This email thread might be of some use to you: Message-Id: <1201182221.3156.15.camel@offworld> Subject: usbmon info List-archive: <http://mail.nl.linux.org/kernelnewbies/> from 24/01/2008. There are also other emails on the same list about usbmon, so I suggest you take a look at those too. Though I'm not sure how one sniffs and still uses the device in Windows. Hope that helps, Srdjan
