I expected as much. And it wouldn't surprise me if there is some bug in the hardware. Perhaps it's expecting a probe to it after a certain stage before turning "on" or perhaps it can't handle some probe that is being done to it by default, which throws it in to this weird locked state until another probe for the descriptor which then resets it? Is there some way I could debug this? Where can I find the code in Linux which is doing this? If I can duplicate that process under my own control I could find out at least whether it starts off in a working state, then dies, or begins dead until a delayed device descriptor probe. -AF ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
