As it has been already reported in the linux-usb-users list, the IBM USB 2.0 Memory Key (0x0a16/0x9989) does not seem to work with Linux.
Ben Liblit reports the following (IBM ThinkPad X24 laptop, stock Red Hat 8.0 kernel 2.4.18): 00:58:20 kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus2/1, assigned device number 2 00:58:20 kernel: usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0xa16/0x9989) is not claimed by any active driver. 00:58:24 /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Setup usb-storage for USB product a16/9989/100 00:58:24 kernel: Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... 00:58:24 kernel: usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage 00:58:24 kernel: scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices 00:58:45 kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout 00:58:56 kernel: scsi: device set offline - not ready or command retry failed after bus reset: host 1 channel 0 id 0 lun 0 00:58:56 kernel: Vendor: IBM Model: Memory Key Rev: 1.01 00:58:56 kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 00 00:58:56 kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered. 00:58:57 kernel: floppy1: Getstatus times out (0) on fdc 0 00:58:57 kernel: 00:58:57 kernel: floppy driver state 00:58:57 kernel: ------------------- etc... I get different error messages (IBM ThinkPad X30 laptop, Red Hat 7.3 with updates, kernel 2.4.18-18.7.x): 12:34:02 kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus2/1, assigned device number 3 12:34:02 kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2, frame# 1593 12:34:02 kernel: usb.c: USB device not responding, giving up (error=-75) I volunteer to investigate the problem. Can anyone tell me what to do (e.g. how to recompile modules with debugging turned on, etc.) and what informations to look for in order to determine exactly the nature of the problem ? I can then post the results to this list. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Loris Renggli, IMA, EPFL, CH-1015 Lausanne loris dot renggli at epfl dot ch tel: +41-21-693 2790 fax: +41-21-693 4303 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: Thawte.com Understand how to protect your customers personal information by implementing SSL on your Apache Web Server.
