Hi Thomas, Not sure if this is relevant (as I dont know what version of linux you are running) but there has been changes (around 2.6.10) which provide alternative (Windoze-Like) approach to interrogating a newly found device. There is a comment in drives/usb/core/hub.c stating that there is an old and a new way. That it is possible (with two variables) to select the old or new, or both.
You might find that your USB device (mouse) has stopped working because it is old and doesn't like the new way of detection. The comments imply this new-old or both detection option can be selected under the module configuration somehow. I dont know about this, but you can change it by recompiling the kernel. This may be more effort than its worth just trying another mouse! ;o) Did your mouse ever work previously on the same or different version of linux? [I am presently seeing this error for a completely different device, and it looks like the device simply doesn't respond to GET_DESCRIPTOR request (new) or SET_ADDRESS (old) which are the first USB requests sent out on the detection of a new device. I've not had any luck with either approach - hence my last email to the newsgroup.] Hope this helps, Mike. ----- Original Message ---- From: Thomas Folz-Donahue <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: linux-usb-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Tuesday, February 6, 2007 6:19:58 PM Subject: [Linux-usb-users] USB mouse not working When I plug my USB mouse into my laptop, I get this from dmesg: [17179735.572000] ohci_hcd 0000:00:13.0: wakeup [17179735.956000] usb 1-1: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2 [17179736.136000] usb 1-1: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [17179736.420000] usb 1-1: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [17179736.700000] usb 1-1: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3 [17179736.880000] usb 1-1: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [17179737.164000] usb 1-1: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [17179737.444000] usb 1-1: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 4 [17179737.852000] usb 1-1: device not accepting address 4, error -110 [17179738.028000] usb 1-1: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 5 [17179738.436000] usb 1-1: device not accepting address 5, error -110 additionaly, lsusb says nothing about the mouse: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~ ^_^]$ lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 So I searched for that error message in lxr and google code search. I found that an error of type -110 corresponds to an ETIMEDOUT and comes from usb_start_wait_urb() getting a status of ECONNRESET from usb_submit_urb()... I don't know what to do about this.
