[wish-info] Failure when initializing plusbd

[Patrick Lewis]

It looks like I am able to connect on some level (USB?) to the
Powerlinc USB transmitter, but ultimately fail.

kernel:
2.6.11.7

command:
/usr/sbin/plusbd -device /dev/usb/hid/hiddev0 -timeout 10000 -debug

stdout:
plusbd, debug turned on
OK...let's start

Not really sure what I should be looking for next, so any suggestions
would be appreciated. Thanks.
