change {idVendor} {idProduct} recognized by udev

Hi, I want to change a device recognized by lsub :

Bus 001 Device 008: ID 03f0:251d Hewlett-Packard Gobi 2000 Wireless Modem

IN something like:

Bus 001 Device 008: ID  05c6:9204 IBM Gobi 2000 Wireless Modem

in order to install some brand software on a virtualized xp.

How can I do?

echo "05c6 9204" > /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/qcserial/new_id doen't work.    http://superuser.com/questions/127494/c … product-id
insmod qcserial.ko vendor="05c6" product="9204" doesn't work.

Thanks.

You can't do this on the computers end.  You'd need to reprogram the device.  Why would you want to do this?  You say you want new software, but how does falsifying the device ID help you use new software?

I need to install thinkvantage gps software in a winxp guest in order to get gps working...  http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Qualcomm_Gobi_2000
It does work only on ibm computers...and hp software doesnt work (m pc is cf 19 toughbook).

Maybe it's possible to write an udev rule that rename the device.
