This professional driver management tool that can back-up, restore, update, remove and find new drivers for your PC. It can also automatically find drivers that your system can't, and provide you with a direct download link in seconds!
The program scans your computer and if it finds any obsolete driver it warns you and offer the possibility to download and install the new version automatically. It also detects if there is a better driver for your devices.
Driver Genius Professional Edition in addition to allowing you to create backup of your drivers also gives you the option of doing it as a folder, zip file, automatic extraction file or automatic inst...
With that in mind, the patch in question appears to be adding an additional USB ID to an existing driver. It is possible to patch additional IDs into a driver at runtime, so you might be able to get get away without going through a recompile. You may want to try this even if you plan to recompile the kernel, since it should be enough to verify that the hardware works.
At this point, the driver should bind to the new device. If it doesn't, try unplugging and replugging it. You should see a new /dev/videoN device file, and maybe some extra log messages in the output of dmesg when this happens.
PortableApps really needs Driver Manager, Driver Genius or similar driver utility. Although I've never found it necessary to have drivers monitored and regularly scanned/updated which would need a resident installation, it's a great time-saver on new builds and OS upgrades so perfectly suited to the PortableApps armoury. There are dozens on the market, but only the paid ones are really worthwhile.
I never understood the purpose of these utilities myself as most proper hardware has drivers that are auto-detected by Windows and installed via Windows update. The only real exception is the GPU if you want to install the full-blown drivers with all the utilities for games and multi-monitor management. I've managed my own PCs for a couple decades, built my own from scratch, managed my own hardware and done fresh Windows installs on a few occasions and never had need of one. Am I missing something?
Well, you're clearly not 'missing' anything if you've never had a problem solved by a driver utility. I used to take the same view until I was faced with a PC with one of those little yellow warning triangles in Device Manager and no idea which device was causing the problem. I spent a whole afternoon trying to fix the problem before giving up and buying a licence for Driver Genius which fixed the problem in minutes (it turned out to be an Intel ME driver).
I generally take the 'If it ain't broke...' approach and, as I said, don't use any scheduled scan or see any point in taking an automated approach to updating drivers, but used intelligently and with due caution a good driver scanner is a valuable addition to any tool kit. I just don't want to install it to be able to run it once.
but today, when the XP is ending in few months, we will be left with w7 and w8, both get drivers from MS as all signed drivers are also in the MS repository, the hunt for exotic drivers somewhere in the net is past story.
I connected recently also an old usb floppy drive produced some 12 years ago to a w7 machine, it did show yellow warnig sign.
Reason: Microsoft has not any signed driver for it, therefore nobody has a signed driver for it. Period. Disposed the device off.
A driver utility will only tell me the same.
I recently re-installed a 1 year old Dell from scratch, without using the recovery partition (didn't want all the bloatware). And there were numerous drivers that Windows/MS could not identify. The only way to get these drivers was to identify the ID of the Hardware, google what the HW was, then go to Dell's website and download the correct driver manually. Not to mention the PITA is was to get the NIC driver downloaded and installed.
And yes I know that I can use the Dell express service code to filter the driver list, however even with that, there are usually 2 or 3 different possible drivers depending on the specific device you ordered in your PC.
If you're happy to discard a machine if Windows Update fails to update drivers that's up to you. I'll leave it for others to draw their own conclusions (thanks for your post, Rapscallion). I think you've been lucky with your experience of Windows Update.
Now I'm not saying it's any substitute for a good understanding of drivers and updating them manually one at a time, but identifying the devices can be troublesome certainly takes longer so if a utility can do all, or even some, of this tedious work and doesn't do any damage that can't be undone, it's earned a place in my toolbox.
This utility also offer a convenient way to back up all drivers which is useful not only in case something goes wrong (back up before updating), but by backing up after an update, provides a useful way to reinstall drivers if required on the same or similar machine via the Device Manager without the need to install the utility.
as I can not see how an usb floppy drive where the only drivers ever existed were for w95o and the only way to get a signed driver is to write it yourself and supply it to MS for check, signing and placing it to their repository.
So why to bother with such things.
I see it just from the practical way, when there is no driver existing for a device and operating system, just curious how some driver tool can help? Write new driver and let it be signed by MS?
Or write a letter to MS and ask them for permission to install not checked driver in the system?
While searching for drivers *in the past*, I was using also number of tools for getting and updating drivers etc.
The tools I met so far simply suggested a driver and advised to get it from the manufacturer, in some cases pointed me to that manufacturer directly as well or grabbed the driver from there etc.
I recently got some USB programming cable for Motorola radios. However the usb converter in it was an older prolifec variety, having drivers on some website for download, but they are not signed by MS.
What can I do in such case? Will the driver tool get the signature for me?
No, even the smartest tool is not able to sign the driver so that it is recognized properly in windows as valid, the cable is therefore useless, I will dispose off next week. (or you can have them, they work well on my w2k machine)
I've never had any issues with drivers downloaded via DG and don't think I've even been warned about a signature, although I have used unsigned drivers explicitly is some situations and don't think it's ever caused a problem. With some devices there's no choice - you can either use the unsigned driver from the manufacturer or not use the device.
Just because microsoft does not have a driver doesn't mean that no driver exists for that device, microsoft update is good..but it doesnt have every single driver in the world Also just because a driver is unsigned does not mean its bad. There are many cases where Devices drivers are unsigned or not in Microsoft Update, alls you have to do usually is go to the manufacturers website and download the driver yourself, unsigned or not doesnt matter as long as the driver came from a reputable source a.k.a the manufacturers website. It seems like such a waste to throw away hardware just becuase it wasn't included in Microsoft Update.
I used to work in IT in a Shipyard where we build Super Yachts for millionaires around the world and quite often we would have to use hardware which was not signed or included in Microsoft update on some of our systems and that hardware was usually not cheap... now imagine if we would throw all of that stuff away just becuase it wasnt in microsoft update or signed. It's not so bad using the installation CD that comes with the product or to visit the manufacturers website for an updated driver for your OS
