I have a usb mouse and keyboard attached to the same system. Both work fine. Is there a problem because I am running xen? Is this related to the host being a 64 bit system?

Afterwards i unmounted the drive and ran a e2fsck -f device. No error was reported.

Re: [CentOS] usb irq problem
i add the irqpoll option to kernel line. after the system booted i log into X with tty1 also login as root with the command tail -f /var/log/messages for monitoring . After 10 to 20 minutes i got the same message again but this time immediately the system froze up ! i tried it 5 times now and each time is the same result.i also noticed that the system was behaving very slowly till the message came up like usually folder copy operation - i usually get 70-90MB/s according to vmstat 1 comand, but with irqpoll the maximum i noticed was like 10MB/s. Am i doing something wrong ? ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
