I don't see any indication of it in the output. I was expecting a vendor/product that was not known to the system, but that does nto appear to be the case. the only two not identified have and the first in an Intel vendor ID and the second appears to be an Asix Ethernet controller, though the information on that is sketchy. When you plug in the drive, the console should show a message. A similar message should be sent when it is unplugged. Can you try that and report the message? It should include the vendor and product IDs. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkober...@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683 _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
