So the question one needs to keep in mind is not USB3 per se, but whether the xhci kernel module is being used.
Yes. As far as I know (but I am neither a USB expert nor a Linux kernel expert) - the xhci kernel module is always used for USB3 and sometimes also for what is labeled as USB2 on the computer. As far as I know the reason why xhci is used for what is labeled as USB2 on the computer is that internally it is one same chip (or perhaps even only a chip-like sub-component of a bigger hardware thingy). When xhci is used it cannot be replaced by a kernel module for traditional USB2, see https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=920067#c23 Furthermore sometimes the xhci kernel module "just works" and sometimes not depending on weird circumstances, see https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=856794#c40 Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX GmbH - GF: Felix Imendoerffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton - HRB 21284 (AG Nuernberg) -- sane-devel mailing list: [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sane-devel Unsubscribe: Send mail with subject "unsubscribe your_password" to [email protected]
