Description Zakhar 2018-06-23 04:39:00 UTC
Any item connected to usb should be displayed in a tab in the panels system notification area in the USB icon named "Device Notifier" even if connected object cannot be modified in anyway or be mounted/unmounted.

it is wishlist item
Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2018-06-23 11:20:52 UTC
Could you please add more information why this is useful? To view the USB device tree, we have KInfoCenter.
Comment 3 Zakhar 2018-06-23 19:18:08 UTC
Make kinfo center available via system notification areA, some people have hubs and like to know whats active
Comment 4 Nate Graham 2018-06-27 18:26:37 UTC
Sorry, I'm not sure this request makes sense. Most users only want to see USB devices that can be interacted with in some way; the only people who would like to see all connected devices are computer enthusiasts and software developers, for whom opening KInfoCenter (or just using `lsusb`) are simple.
