Hi ,

 

I have modified the usb-skeleton.c to work for my first usb device driver.

I have just modified the

#define USB_SKEL_VENDOR_ID

#define USB_SKEL_PRODUCT_ID

in usb-skeleton.c according to my need.

when I give insmod init function gets called and when i give rmmod exit function gets called correctly.

When i insert my device probe hardly get called.

Do i need to add anyother thing in driver code to detect my deive.

Looking for all your help

Yeah, you need to find the h/w yourself. You will need to work out how to detect the I/O port and IRQ, either doing it automatically or providing a way to do it manually.
