[NCLUG] USB Test?

[Michael Dwyer]

I think you can get a list of what the computer thinks is plugged in by
reading the files in the /proc file system.  Just off the top of my
head, I'd look in /proc/usb or maybe /proc/bus/usb.  Id nothing else,
there should be an entry for the root hub and maybe the other two
devices you plugged in.
