+ Some USB devices such as 3G/4G broadband modems power-up
+ in mass storage mode to provide access to drivers
+ for the device's application mode. usb_modeswitch
+ changes the mode of such devices from the initial power-up
+ mode to the application mode.
+ Specific configuration data for each device model is required.
+
+ usb_modeswitch can be used with the usb_modeswitch_data
+ package and eudev/systemd for automatic mode switching
+ when devices are connected.
+
+ For more information search the Internet for "Virtual CD-ROM
+ switching utility".
