Unfortunately, yes. The USB portion of the CPU board has not been needed until now, and although I did know about the unconnected pin, I also knew it could be fixed in s/w, so I wasn't too concerned. >> AFAIK it defaults to device mode so I can't see any devices that get >> plugged into the USB port. >> >> If I tweak the s/w to "force" host mode on, then everything appears to >> work okay. >> >> I guess it's more of a hardware oversight that we left the pin floating >> but in the real world, I guess someone may want this feature to they >> can change the usb port type ? > > This is something I would prefer to avoid if possible.

I didn't think it would be such an issue, so I'm happy to keep this as a local patch if that's any better.
