#### USB Device Inspector - USB devices, IDs & plug/unplug history

USB Device Inspector lists the USB devices and hubs the Linux kernel knows
about by reading /sys/bus/usb/devices, and keeps a plug / unplug history
with timestamps.

A lightweight Linux alternative to USBDeview for listing USB devices and
their connect / disconnect times.

Key Features:

* Device table: bus, device number, VID:PID, vendor, product, serial, speed,
  class, bound driver and attached storage (size, mount points).
* Detail pane with the full sysfs attribute set; copy and CSV export.
* Live plug / unplug monitor (2s sysfs polling) with a persistent history
  file, plus events parsed from the kernel log (kern.log / syslog / dmesg)
  when readable.
* USB ID database browser (usb.ids) to look up vendors and products.
* Drivers & Modules tab: USB-related kernel modules and USB input devices.
* If the kernel exposes no USB bus (for example WSL or some containers) the
  app says so instead of showing fake data.
* Bilingual donate header (Vietnamese / English).

## Enable snaps on Fedora and install USB Device Inspector

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap can be installed on Fedora from the command line:

```
sudo dnf install snapd
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```
