I have an external Acomdata USB/Firewire 160G hard drive and a
Cicero CardBus USB 2.0 and firewire card. My laptop (Dell Inspiron
4150) sees both devices with the usb-ohci driver, but for some reason
they connect at 12 Mb/s instead of 480, and so accessing the drive is
*extremely* slow.
They are both USB 2.0 compatible.
I've included lspci, usbview and dmesg output below. The lspci output
suggests that the full capabilities of the CardBus card are not being
recognized:
lspci output:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 82845 845 (Brookdale) Chipset Host Bridge (rev 04)

00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corp. 82801CA/CAM USB (Hub #1) (rev 02)
The above is the onboard USB 1.1 port, which I am not using.

07:00.4 FireWire (IEEE 1394): ALi Corporation M5253 P1394 OHCI 1.1 Controller
The 07:00 entries are my CardBus card. It has *two* USB ports, so I'm
not sure why there are four entries. I also don't know why three of
them are listed as USB 1.1.
Strangely, usbview lists three USB devices, which seem to match the
first three that lspci shows (i.e. they are all listed as USB 1.1).
(See below.)
Any idea how I can get them to negotiate a higher speed? What extra
information can I provide to help debug this?
Thanks for any help!
Dan
