since i run this box i see the usb keyboard and mice vanashing from time to time. in recent times it got more frequent.
please look at the attached log of one such instance. can you tell if it is the hardware failing? i run a box with multiple keyboards and mice (and monitors). in this case my wife`s devices remained functional. nothing special happend at that point in time. i consider buying a plug-in usb card to avoid the potentially broken on-board stuff, if you guys tell me it is the underlying hardware.
