So, does usb_modeswitch comes with latest distributions by default? Thanks! BR.

Cc: Alan Stern; Josua Dietze; Phil Dibowitz; USB list; USB Storage list; Kernel development list Subject: Re: [PATCH] USB: Mass Storage: Add MediaTek MT6276M device entry Devices should not be added to unusual_devs.h unless the device CANNOT use the usb_modeswitch method. This most commonly applies when the device's usb-storage emulation is poor, and the probing commands sent by usb-storage cause the device to crash. It is much more convenient for users to just upgrade their usb_modeswitch utility than it is for them to upgrade a kernel, which is much more difficult and much more rare. As for 'input command manually', that is what udev scripts are for. If this can be handled from userspace by usb_modeswitch, then that is where it should be done.
