So. After a looong time I decided to drop you a note whats going on with my "small but funny" usb/ide problem: (Maybe others are interested into this too)
First: I didn't bought a new USB controller. Alan, your patch went quite well and it looks like the device isn't disconnecting any longer. So I did some usb-storage transfer tests and it looks like it had no unwanted side-effects. However the IDE-transfer problem still exists, and I posted it to the linux-ide list. (It's not directly a USB problem because also the CPU utilization has influence on it) The hang after some time using the ehci-hcd driver still happens but I was able to isolate it. It looks like the also onboard audio-module (snd_via82xx,snd_ac97_codec) is getting wrong with either the ehci-hcd driver or the pvrusb2 driver using ehci-hcd. Till using pvrusb2 with ehci-hcd I had no problems using the audio output. Unloading ehci-hcd switching back to uhci-hcd solves the problem again. Directing audio output to /dev/null also works without further interruptions. (Maybe this is also not a perfect solution :-) but someone gets an idea whats going comletely wrong here) Beside this the msp3400 module for my pvrusb2 device included in the mainline kernel is not usable for me, because it hangs too after some channel-switches. So not funny enough, the msp3400 module bundled with the pvrusb2-driver (an older version of this module) solves at least this problem. (Looks like v4l-people screwed something up with inclusion into the mainline kernel). Ok. That's it for now. So I'm now a bit glueless to which of the problems I will stick next ... (Just send me some ideas :-) Howere I'm willing to test patches if someone has an idea whats happening here. Cheers helmut PS: You're right if you think that I already reached a high level of insanity. -- My GNUpg fingerprint http://www.gnupg.org 4563 F4FB 0B7E 8698 53CD 00E9 E319 35BD 6A91 1656 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
