[gentoo-user] dead USB card?

[gentoo-user] dead USB card?

[Jorge Almeida]

I have a USB PCI card which stopped working, meaning my scanner stopped
being detected. The problem remains also under KNOPPIX.
Can I assume the card is dead? (But it is recognized, sort of...)

It looks like you have a USB 1.0 hub connected to USB 1.1 controller, if it's 
true, your scanner probably does not like it because of insuficient power 
and/or speed.

I didn't connect any hub, the controller is in a PCI card and the
scanner is connected to the card. The strange output of lspci is the
same whether the scanner is connected or not.

It looks like the ohci and ehci drivers are fighting over the card. 
You don't need both, so I would disable ohci in your kernel
configuration and see if that works.

The card has 3 USB 1.1 sockets and a 2.0 one. Isn't it necessary to
enable ohci to access the 1.1 sockets?

Who designed this freakish thing...Dr Frankenstein???

Anyway, since I have no knowledge of this card, I could be wrong.  But
I would try either the ehci or ohci driver, but not both at the same
time.

Probably. Let's say that I'm always a good example of Murphy's laws.
(Did I mention that the 1.1 USB controllers built in the MO are _uhci_?
:))

Maybe there's something wrong with the motherboard, which is not young
anymore. The USB card is just not working, whether under gentoo or
knoppix. The card is not knew, and it worked before...
Maybe I'll try changing PCI slots...

(Sorry about the delay in replying, but my cable modem has been comatose
for a few days.)
