Maybe. But mostly your issues are warn() messages from the driver, which won't always indicate bugs. I suspect maybe this driver should use dbg() not warn(). > 1) "Rx status -84" - scrolls incessantly down my screen.

That often suggests some kind of hardware problem, like a bad cable. But drivers can goof up the data toggle and cause -EILSEQ. > 2) "reset needed may be?.." which is always spewed on the screen when I > disconnect the device from the usb bus. Live Yoda long! :) That message is returned on -ETIMEDOUT, which is what OHCI returns when the device stops responding (like maybe because it's gone). UHCI returns -EILSEQ, which produces your other message. Spewing is an undesirable response, but is hard to avoid since if those errors happen at other times, they're trouble. But khubd will disconnect() the driver when it notices, so the messages will stop at some point. > 3) System hard reboots - this is wierd, and has happened only 3 times, > but I'll start something like ping apple.com or using links/lynx to go > somewhere, screen blanks, and I get the BIOS screen and it's starting > back up. > 3) Kernel Panic - This is even more rare, I think mainly with kernel > 2.5.33 with the preemptive stuff included. Are you running with "debug memory allocations" enabled? I tend to run with that at all times; it'll notice many bugs before they get a chance to corrupt things very much. Both of these #3 modes are pretty far gone. My initial suspicion is that if there's a bug it's not in the ohci code, since if it were then a lot of other people would see the same problems. - Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: AMD - Your access to the experts on Hammer Technology!
