Hallo linux-usb-users, i think, i have the proof that the behaviour of the genesis Bridge has only to do with usb-storage, nothing with the other parts of usb. I had done the following:
In vmware i build a virtual Windows-XP Machine, and i give this machine acces to an usb-device. The virtual machine sees an Intel 82371 PCI2USB Hostcontroller. On my Linuxhost, i put the case with my dvdburner on the via PCI/USB Host and in the vmware-settings for the virtual machine an "genesys mass storage devive" was shown. When i tried using this, vmware says i should unload usb-storage, because this driver owns the device. So i unloaded usb-storage and i could have access to the device in the virtual-machine. Now there it was shown correctly as lg 4081 DVD. And i could burn to it with Nero! OK, the speed was not in fact 4x DVD, but it was about 1500kB/ s, so more than double as high as i get on my USB 1.0 Host under Linux (there DVD-Burning is only with extensiv burnproof possible). So for me it seems, as if the communication between my PCI-USB Host with via-Chipset and the USB-IDE Bridge from genesyslogic generally works under linux. The error happens in the communication between usb-storage and the device. And it didn't is the speed of datatransfer. I tried burning under Linux with growisofs + cdrecord-dvdpro also on a Single-Speed DVD-RW, and also with that slow datarate i get the "bulk:timeout" error. Maybe this test of mine will give someone of the programmers of the usb- parts another idea where to look for. BTW, my case came with genesys- drivers for use with Windows 98 and MAC-OS-10x. If someone needs them to have a look into, give me a cry.
