These sorts of errors are usually caused by bad hardware, such as low-quality USB cables. Often the culprit turns out to be a cable inside the computer case connecting the USB port to the motherboard. But sometimes the device itself is at fault. > The command lsusb hangs the process solid. No ctrl-Z or ctrl-C. To get more information, turn on CONFIG_USB_DEBUG and see what appears in the dmesg log.
