Hey, thanks for the reply. Turns out I was right about the diagnostic. 2.5 *did* *not* *unload* *ehci*. So after the reboot all usb1-aware systems (bios, linux 2.4, etc) found usb components that expected usb2 commands. David Brownell send me a patch that forced ehci unload at shutdown (via a reboot notifier) and all's been well since. So it was a real 2.5 bug. Sure the hardware could have moped up usb remains better, but since other evil OSes cleanup their usb stack correctly, I guess they didn't bother (plus I suspect it would have made boot times a bit longer). Anyway, closing one of the first ten bugzilla bugs at last one feels very good:) -- Nicolas Mailhot
