That should help, but I guess that he does have a more relevant point:
since so many USB input devices are broken from a power management POV,
breakage may happen easily and often, thus information on how to undo it
would better be displayed prominently, especially as long as we don't
have a working and thorough in-kernel blacklist mechanism for broken
devices (is someone working on collecting such information and implementing
the blacklist/whitelist?).


And it would be nice to know the exact make and model numbers (see bottom?)
and, most importantly, lsusb -vv -n, for blacklist reasons.
