any ways to get usb info ?

[varnie]

good day.

what is the similar FreeBSD command for the Linux' one: "sudo lsusb -v|grep -i iSerial" ?

suppose, we want to have a look at Apple iPod's "iSerial" value.
the command "usbdev" doesn't provide enough info as the Linux' "lsubsd" does.

i've found the solution: http://50hz.ws/dev/getserial.c and it works pretty well. but i am curious if there are any "native" FreeBSD ways to get the same?

thanks in advance.

Varnie, the lsusb command is in the port sysutils/usbutils. You might also want to install the separate port sysutils/usbutils also.

FreeBSD ships with pciconf(8) and usbdevs(8) which let you see all PCI and USB devices.

This doesn't display all information, for example the iPod serial number mentioned above.

IIRC you can list the serial number with audio/gnupod.

Only on Linux/Solaris, not on FreeBSD ... At least, not that I could figure out.

yes, Carpertsmoker is right.

Hrm, didn't know that about the iPod. I don't have access to any iPods (my phone is an 8 GB media player).
