[FC1] Want to ignore a USB device

[Gordon Charrick <gordonmc cox net>]

I've got an HP pocket PC with a USB docking cradle. I'm also running 
winxp under VMware and I want the docking cradle to be used there. 
Unfortunately, fedora is grabbing the device first and VMware can't see 
it. I've been trying to figure out how to fix this through hotplug but 
haven't been able to yet.

This is the messages logged when the pocket pc is plugged in and the 
entry from the lsusb command.
