Mobo BIOS updated, latest SP in WindowsXP, latest 2.6 stable kernel in linux, everything you mention activated, still no luck... I think I'm giving up... while googling I have found many people with similar problems, and there never were a clear solution. I've tried to make it work with both Linux and Windows (I had to try, just in case) with no luck, so I'm assuming this is a mobo issue... after all the USB2.0 stuff seems to have been included in this mobo as a late add on, as the USB2.0 functionality is provided by a separate VIA VT6202 chipset that may be individually deactivated with a jumper. There seem to be other problems, as Windows detects up to 12 USB ports while I haven't been able to count more than 8. This seems to happen also in Linux. So it seems I'll have to live without USB2.0 until I change my mobo. Thanks, best regards Jose -- [email protected] mailing list
