Greetings. I have an Asus A7N266-VM motherboard, which uses the nForce-220D chipset. I'm using RedHat 8.0, but I don't think the problem is RedHat specific.
Description of the problem: Whenever I start my computer with USB devices connected, the computer will hang right after loading module usb-ohci. The hanging also occurs if I start the computer without USB devices, and then hot-plug those. There is no kernel panic nor any error messages (on console), everything just stops. However, sometimes everything may go fine, if I have just ONE device (printer) connected, and I don't try to hot-plug it. This happens with both RedHat kernels (eg. 2.4.18-26.8.0), and a vanilla 2.4.20 (compiled with the same config as the RedHat default kernel). I also have a solution. If I compile the kernel (whichever version of the two) with the same config, but *excluding* APM support, everything works just great. Loading APM module with USB devices connected results in a similar hang as described above. So, there seems to be some serious conflict between the USB driver and the APM driver. I don't really know if this more of a USB or APM related problem, and therefore I'm not very sure to whom a bug report should be sent to. I'd like to hear your views and opinions about this whole thing. -- (Mr) Lauri Nurmi ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Definitive IT and Networking Event.
