Is it always USB? What kernel layers are involved? RFCOMM, BNEP, CMTP, HIDP? You will need more than this two patches for a 2.6.7 based kernel, because there are some serious problems, too. > I assume it's easier to backport it to 2.6.7, if 2.4.26 is easier, please > let me know. The 2.6.7 backport will be end up in selecting patches and fixes small things, while for 2.4.26 you need to rewrite most of the patches.
