Simple answer yes it does according to http://askubuntu.com/questions/12139/does-ubuntu-support-usb-3-0 , but i was more curious about your question and wanted to dig a bit more and know where exactly is it defined in the code ? so found the code in here http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/usb/host/?v=2.6.38 i will not point to the exact piece where it is defined i would leave that as an exercise to the budding kernel hackers on the group. keep these kind of questions coming at least this way we will look at the kernel code and learn in the process . for the people with academic interest it is because of this spec http://www.intel.com/technology/usb/xhcispec.htm we have support for USB 3.0 . cheers -Satya fossevents.in -- Mailing list guidelines and other related articles: http://lug-iitd.org/Footer
