Hi all I have gentoo install and a USB 2.0 Hard disk that required 500mA of power
Now under Windows XP the drive worked perfectly, but under gentoo it wouldnt work (it have symptoms of not enough power). Now from what i remember about the USB specification 250mA is the max current availiable unless a device requests more. My drive requests it and Windows seems to honour that by providing more power, but gentoo doesnt. What can i do to get more power out of my port (i dont have windows anymore). Thanks for your help. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
