Ok, I'm new so I did not know that. However, usb_modeswitch binary seems
to look for it, that seems wrong, isn't it?

I understand.

That's not my case currently, even if my device USB id are included in
the files provided by -data.

This is why I tried to investigate a little but and discovered that
calling usb_modeswitch fails because of that missing file.

And when I read:
ATTRS{idVendor}=="19d2", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2000", RUN+="usb_modeswitch '%b/%k'"
(my device)

I was wondering if it really runs "usb_modeswitch something/something",
because I'm not sure it'd works.
