Hi, the problem that we found, was:
Plugging any USB device to a Sony Vaio FX 2xx, we get a kernel message like: kernel: hub.c: port 2 connection change kernel: hub.c: port 2, portstatus 100, change 1, 12 Mb/s kernel: hub.c: port 2 connection change kernel: hub.c: port 2, portstatus 101, change 1, 12 Mb/s kernel: hub.c: port 2, portstatus 103, change 0, 12 Mb/s kernel: hub.c: USB new device connected on bus1/2, assigned device number 2 kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout kernel: hub.c: USB new device not accepting new address=2 (error=-110) kernel: hub.c: port 2, portstatus 103, change 0, 12 Mb/s kernel: hub.c: USB new device connected on bus1/2, assigned device number 3 kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout kernel: hub.c: USB new device not accepting new address=3 (error=-110) Johannes Erdfelt ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) supposed an IRQ routing problem. Paul McAvoy ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) confirmed this problem, as well as Leo ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Leo proposed: > I found nothing useful on the net and cooked up my own "black magic" solution. > It is ugly and my USB printer Cannon 600 is very slow but at least USB mouse if > works fine.

You should set your speaker volume low:-) ... and it works. The only thing you have to do, is to give your ARTs server work to do. If I start on my SuSE 7.2 (kernel 2.4.4) this 'beep'-deamon on a KDE konsole (not xterm), or even better I start noatun (=kde-xmms) and hear some good music, then my USB-ZIP is recognized and I can transfer my data. Only the transfer rate is bad (6 times faster on a PC with correctly working USB). But there should be a proper solution. Will there be one, Johannes or Greg KH ?
