Ok, I've got a Sony VAIO R505 laptop. I've got both Linux and Windows 2K on it (my token minority).
One day, USB stopped working under Linux. It *was* working great, but one day, I had left plugged in a Creative VOIPBlaster with a phone attached that needed batteries (that didn't have batteries). After that, for some reason, USB no longer works under Linux. It *does* work fine under Win2k! This laptop also has a docking station, that adds another 2 ports - 1 works fine under Linux, the other doesn't, for a total of 3 bad, 1 good. I get these messages when I plug in a USB device under Linux: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 2 usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout usb.c: USB device not accepting new address=2 (error=-110) hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 3 usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout usb.c: USB device not accepting new address=3 (error=-110) >From dmesg (showing that an internal, sony memstick device works): Linux version 2.4.17 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-85)) #1 Wed Jan 23 23:36:33 PST 2002 PCI: Found IRQ 9 for device 00:1f.6 PCI: Sharing IRQ 9 with 00:1f.3 PCI: Sharing IRQ 9 with 00:1f.5 usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs usb.c: registered new driver hub uhci.c: USB Universal Host Controller Interface driver v1.1 PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 00:1f.2 IRQ routing conflict for 00:1f.2, have irq 9, want irq 10 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 00:1f.2 to 64 uhci.c: USB UHCI at I/O 0x1820, IRQ 9 usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1 hub.c: USB hub found hub.c: 2 ports detected PCI: Found IRQ 9 for device 00:1f.4 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 00:1f.4 to 64 uhci.c: USB UHCI at I/O 0x2400, IRQ 9 usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 2 hub.c: USB hub found hub.c: 2 ports detected hub.c: USB new device connect on bus2/1, assigned device number 2 usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x54c/0x56) is not claimed by any active driver.

Oh, and it doesn't matter which uhci driver I use.. -- ------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Thomas Davis | ASG Cluster guy [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (510) 486-4524 | "80 nodes and chugging Captain!" _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
