I'm seeing similar USB problems with 64-bit Intrepid (8.10) running on an Asus M3N78-EM motherboard. The mouse pointer on my wireless keyboard/trackball combo freezes a few seconds after booting. It only freezes when I move it; if I don't touch the mouse then I can go for hours, but move it for a few seconds and it freezes up every time. The keyboard (same wireless receiver) keeps working. There is nothing in dmesg when the freeze happens. Only a reboot will restore it; repluging the receiver or restarting X doesn't work. Adding "noapic" to the boot options lets me use the mouse for a few minutes instead of a few seconds, but it still freezes.
This seems very similar to the USB problems reported with Dell E521, which is also an nvidia USB controller: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/67734 That bug was fixed by a BIOS update. I tried disabling all power management features, upgrading to NVIDIA driver 180.51, flashing the latest BIOS, screwing with BIOS settings. Nothing has worked. Finally got fed up an bought a PCI-E USB hub, and the mouse has worked flawlessly ever since. But this is far from an ideal solution, as the card is not recognized by the BIOS or grub. I would really like to find a better way to fix this. -- intrepid 64 bit usb issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292673 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
