Re: [RFT] Re: [Patch] [bug #26237] multiple problems with usb devices

[Aleš Nesrsta]

Hi Vladimir,

now I have working SSH, so I committed my last work into usb branch
(commented as "Faster OHCI, USB hub support, UHCI portstatus corr.",
revision 2427).

(Sorry if it is not the right way how to cooperate - should I make
another, my own branch? Or wait first for your agreement about notified
patches? Or...?)

Best regards
Ales
