Hi,
does anybody know if there is a progress with this bug? I have installed 
latest available Angstrom distro and running "Linux beaglebone 3.8.13 #1 
SMP Tue Jun 18 02:11:09 EDT 2013 armv7l GNU/Linux" and I can see random 
problem with USB host. One scenario: after reboot I can see 5V at connector 
and when I insert keybord it's detected (dmesg, lsusb), when I reconnect 
mouse it works too but when I disconnect I can see there is 0V at USB and 
lsusb still displays mouse. 0V is there till reboot. I think it's some race 
condition or so in USB detection code. Scenario may change it's rather 
random. I don't think it's because of USB overcurrent protection. USB 
driver is instructed to power off. Seems it's compiled in module in kernel, 
I can see lsmod related module. Is it possible somehow restart USB support ?

I found it's rather well known problem (many posts) but I've not found 
reliable solution - I think it's software bug not electrical. Any help 
appreciated before I sink in kernel code ;-)

I believe it's pretty common critical problem to be left unsolved.

Thanks
Tomas
