The reason why the vendor name and device name is not appearing is
that the USB_VERBOSE option was not included in the configuration
of the 8.0-RELEASE GENERIC kernel.
The USB_VERBOSE option should be included in GENERIC. Otherwise,
any USB device whose driver follows the proper coding convention --
that is, placing vendor and product information in /sys/usb/usbdevs
rather than in the driver itself -- will not print the name of the
vendor or device.
The failure to print the name has nothing to do with the
malfunction in the device, which may be due to overruns. (The
buffer size currently allowed in the driver -- only 4K -- is extremely small.)
