Things seem to be getting worse. Now after a clean reboot, my external USB keyboard and mouse are detected only when I call lsusb from the console.
After a short while, my mouse disappears once again, and lsusb needs to be called again in order to redetect it, after which it works again for about ten seconds before dying. As long as the mouse continues sending events (I roll the trackball around) it stays connected. The moment it is idle again, it's permanently disconnected until another lsusb. This is also now under the generic natty kernel. My builtin keyboard and mouse work throughout. I'll see if I can eliminate some kind of physical issue with the mouse when I get hold of another one. As for physical issues with the laptop, I don't know what I can check to ensure that the USB subsystem isn't actually disappearing and then reappearing on the bus because of some wiring issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779735 Title: Natty doesn't detect external USB harddisk drive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/779735/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
