After compiling a new 2.6.0 kernel I found my hp4300c scanner was no longer properly detected and on the console I saw,
drivers/usb/core/message.c: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout I found the following: In 2.4.21 drivers/usb/usb.c line 2157 was: err = usb_get_string(dev, dev->string_langid, index, tbuf, 255); Now in 2.6.0 drivers/usb/core/message.c line 1208: err = usb_get_string(dev, dev->string_langid, index, tbuf, len); The len value returned by the 4300c is the length of the string. My other USB devices return the length of the string plus header. I think the 4300c is returning the wrong length for the string descriptors. I changed the line to be the same as it was in 2.4.21, which simply requests the maximum length, and now my 4300c is happy.
