Hi,
I am running what was a Red Hat 9 system, but I upgraded to kernel

Someone else reported a similar problem recently. A suggested fix was to
edit drivers/usb/core/hub.c and change the hub_port_init() routine. Near
the start of that function is a call to hub_port_reset(); just after that
call insert a line saying:
msleep(500);
Thanks for the suggestion, but no joy. Same errors occur. I tried
1000 too but
no change. There are a lot error like these:
/etc/hotplug/usb.agent: Bad USB agent invocation
/sbin/hotplug: no runnable /etc/hotplug/scsi_host.agent is installed
But I think I have seen them before - not sure if they're related.
Someone has written to say the the 80GB version of the product works fine on
their system, but I'm not sure if there are any useful traces that I can
compare.
Any thoughts on how to go forward from here? I'm running out of disk space
badly!
Thanks
