hid_get_item: Number of items truncated to 255

[Alban Hertroys]

Hello,

I see this message a couple of times in my dmesg every time I boot and 
I'm wondering from which device these messages originate and whether 
they might be harmful in some way? They don't seem to cause any trouble, 
but it's probably better if they weren't there.

Below are the relevant section of my dmesg and the output of usbconfig:

I found that vendor 0x05ac is Apple Computer Inc and therefore I suspect 
the device that's causing these errors could be the brightness control 
in my Apple Cinema display. The first of below devices is probably the 
USB-hub in the display and the second the brightness control, but it 
could be the other way around.

ugen5.3: <product 0x9131 vendor 0x05ac> at usbus5, cfg=0 md=HOST 
spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=SAVE

ugen5.5: <product 0x9223 vendor 0x05ac> at usbus5, cfg=0 md=HOST 
spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=ON


The other unrecognised device, in case someone wants to add it somewhere:

ugen5.2: <product 0x6560 vendor 0x04b4> at usbus5, cfg=0 md=HOST 
spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=SAVE
