Here is the relevant piece of the FAQ; Q: How do I report a bug?
A:First make sure that it's a bug that hasn't yet been fixed. Try using a recent stable kernel, the most current one if possible, to see if the bug is still "alive". If it's fixed already, keep using that kernel! Otherwise, once you've verified that the bug is still munching away, post a good description of it to the right Linux-USB mailing list. In addition to the information required in /usr/src/linux/REPORTING-BUGS, it also helps enormously if you provide the output of /proc/bus/usb/devices. If you are having problems with your host controller being recognised, it helps to have the output of lspci -v. If it is supposed to be UHCI, it helps to know whether interrupts are being generated every second. You should send this information to the user/help mailing list. If you are using UHCI, try to reproduce the problem with the "other" UHCI host controller driver (HCD). There are currently two UHCI drivers, which don't always behave the same: usb-uhci and uhci (the "alt" or "JE" driver). If you find that you have a workaround, please still report the problem! And make sure you say which HCD(s) you're using. If you have access to both OHCI and UHCI host controllers, please try to reproduce your problem with both kinds of controller. Since these use different HCDs, they may behave differently in some situations. The reason might be a device drivers assuming some HCD-specific behavior, or an HCD not doing the right thing.
