I posted this message (similiar) twice to the newbie list and got zero
responses:
This is the first time I've ever used USB and its been rock-solid up to a
little while ago.
I've got a Logittech USB mouse and a Epson C62 USB printer. Both were found
and installed flawlessly by 9.0 of Mandrake.
I've got a Soyo Dragon plus MB with 4 ports enabled. Every so often, the mouse
dies (no power). I can unplug it, plug it into another USB port (not with the
same group though) and it is instantly back on. Unplugging it from the
original port it was in and plugging it right back in has no effect. Time
varies that it takes for this to happen. When this happens, the printer also
will not print (USB bus busy, will retry in 30 seconds) but it never does
print.
Anyone have any ideas? The mouse works fine on the other 2 comps I have here
and does not do this. I'm not very familiar with USB stuff, but I did try:
service usb restart
and
service cups restart
but they had no effect.
Thanks!
