I tried to run libftdi without the usb_detach function:
/*
if (usb_detach_kernel_driver_np(ftdi->usb_dev,
ftdi->interface) != 0 && errno != ENODATA)
detach_errno = errno;
*/
Now it works as expected. What is this function needed for, anyway? I
whitch case is it necessary to detach a module explicitly?
