Yes, but it is better when there is a new firmware to make the driver look 
for a new name, that's why the patch.

That's my secret :)

Just kidding, see the two scripts attached:

One is used to create the .hex-file from the usbsnoop.log and the other 
one creates the fw-binary.

Before creating the fw-binary one has to remove some parts by hand 
(CPU-restarts for example - they are done by the fw-loader-function).

Patrick.
