[issue1882] Idea for handling new USB vendor/device codes

[Brendan Kosowski (via DragonFly issue tracker)]

New submission from Brendan Kosowski <bmk at bmk.com.au>:

This is just an idea / wish.

Have a config file called /etc/usb_hotwire.conf

e.g.:
# This file allows you to map a new unsupported usb vendor/device code
# to an existing usb vendor/device code supported by a driver.
# File Format:
# <unsupported vendor code>:<unsupported device code> <supported vendor
code>:<supported device code>

# The following makes my unsupported USB wireless adapter use the same driver
(rum) as a D-Link DWL-G122
