This program displays vendor and product names based on a product's built-in Vendor ID and Product ID, plus a list  of 'known' vendors and products.

Because words say more than numbers, we use a translation table that converts the numbers into names. The table that is used for this purpose is taken from the Linux open-source tree which is available on the Internet. In order to keep the list up to date, it is important that any new vendor/product ID is reported to the Linux project. Click on the 'Report Vendor' button in the Vendor-window if you want to report a new number.

From time to time it will be neccessary to update your current Vendor list. Click the button 'Get new Vendor list' below to open the webpage that gives access to the translation table.
