Check that you are looking at the right devices. I looked at my system and the device numbers given by lsusb.py match the device number in the dmesg output like this:

Code: Select all

$ lsusb.py | grep 0582
   3-13.4.3     0582:00e6 ff  1.10   12MBit/s 480mA 3IFs (Roland UA-25EX)
$ dmesg | grep "New USB "  | grep -i 0582
[    2.598030] usb 3-13.4.3: New USB device found, idVendor=0582, idProduct=00e6, bcdDevice= 1.01
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
