Re: install/60883: Device debug messages make install impossible

Hi,

Some time ago about 15 or so years I had  laptop with ELAN touchscreen.

I found that I was necessary to open the uts(4) device and keep it open.

Back then there was no usb quirk that I could add easily - thankfully now 
there is the usb quirk UQ_ALWAYS_ON which I believe will stop the console from 
being spammed by messages.


I need the dmesg of the system to get the ELAN vendor and product so I can add 
a quirk addition for you to try.  Or you can try adding UQ_ALWAYS_ON in 
usb_quirks.c with the product and vendor ids and see if the messages go away.


One thing that is possible if you dont intend to use the touchscreen and just 
want the messages gone is to boot with "userconf disable uts; boot netbsd"


Best regards and I hope this helps,


Nat
