You mean, try not to use the ehci driver at 480Mbps but use the ohci instead at 12Mbps? I just tried that, it also freezes the machine, this time, without anything showing up in the logs.
I tried so far 3 different USB host controllers: 1. The 2.0 EHCI controller I wrote about below. This causes a freeze with messages like below on both 2.4.23 and 2.6.0-test11. To your suggestion, I tried the same card without the EHCI driver, using it as an OHCI controller. This also freezes both with 2.4 and 2.6. 2. The 1.1 UHCI controller built into the motherboard. This plays the DVD for a while, but freezes after somewhere between 10-60 minutes. Nothing in the logs. This was my original problem, after trying various options, I disabled the on board controller in the BIOS thinking it might have a hardware problem, although that now looks doubtful. 3. Another 1.1 OHCI controller card I had in a different machine. This plays the DVD for a while, but freezes similar to the UHCI controller. Nothing in the logs. I'm in X when all this happens, so it's possible it oops-es but I can't see the error. I'll try to get some more info about this. I tried 2.4.22, 2.4.23 and 2.6.0-test11 kernels, but they all behaved simiarly. I disabled many options in the kernel I thought might cause some instability like local APIC, MTRR, AGP support. I also tried the internal built-in DVD rom to play DVD's, that works flawlessly, never saw a freeze. I'm using mplayer as the DVD player. The hardware: * Asus A7V-266E motherboard, Via KT 266 chipset based. * Athlon XP 1900+ CPU * NVidia GeForce 2MX graphics card. I'm using the built in XFree86 4.3 drivers since the nvidia ones seem less stable. * SCSI hard disk for linux, ATA built in DVD rom. I also tried setting the video out to none for mplayer, to remove any possibility that the video card is not happy about the load (-vo null option), but it didn't improve anything. I've tried another USB device, the SoundBlaster Extigy USB sound card. I did get one or two freezups with that too, but wasn't clearly able to point to the cause either. I would be very appreciative of any suggestions to further diagnose and fix the problem. I'm a programmer, but don't have much kernel and USB experience, but I'd be happy to learn and/or try things.
