I wrote a few days ago about having problems with my USB printer, and someone suggested trying the 2.6.2 kernel, which should've fixed some usbfs problems. It seems that it has, but a problem with my usb keyboard has appeared.
The problem: after some time, some keys will be "remapped" to have different keycodes (xev reported different keycodes (not keysyms), at least). Other times (as happened when I started writing this e-mail), one key will get "stuck" and continue to repeat until I unplug the keyboard for a few seconds and plug it back in (it will keep going even after I unplug it). The only message in any of my logs is "kernel: usb 1-2.1: control timeout on ep0in". I'm using the uhci driver. I had similar problems to this with the 2.4 kernels when I was using the usb-uhci driver (the original one), but not the uhci (the new/alternative) one. Since 2.6 is using the uhci driver, I didn't think I'd have a problem, but unfortunately I do. My keyboard is a ms natural pro keyboard (with a dell logo on it). I'm using kernel 2.6.2-0.rc2.1mdk. I'm pretty sure Mandrake hasn't modified this kernel from the kernel.org release code. The USB hub is an "82371AB PIIX4 USB". I also have a hub on the keyboard, which the mouse is plugged into (although this happens even when the mouse is plugged into the computer itself). The hub on the keyboard is a Texas Instruments "TUSB2040 Hub". Does anyone know what might be causing this, or how I might find out more information about what's going on when my keyboard dies?
