Hello,

i've installed an additional PCI USB controller card to have USB 2.0 support 
in an older computer. Unfortunately connecting devices to this controller 
does not work.

host:~# lspci -v | grep HCI
00:02.0 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation nForce USB Controller (rev c3) 
(prog-if 10 [OHCI])
00:03.0 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation nForce USB Controller (rev c3) 
(prog-if 10 [OHCI])
01:07.0 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 
Controller (rev 62) (prog-if 00 [UHCI])
        Subsystem: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 Controller
01:07.1 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 
Controller (rev 62) (prog-if 00 [UHCI])
        Subsystem: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82xxxxx UHCI USB 1.1 Controller
01:07.2 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB 2.0 (rev 65) (prog-if 20 
[EHCI])

nVidia is onboard, VIA is the new one.

Connecting an external harddrive to one of the old USB 1.1 ports works:

host:~# dmesg
usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3

But connecting this harddrive to one of the new USB 2.0 ports does not work:

host:~# dmesg
usb 5-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2

usb 5-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
usb 5-4: device not accepting address 5, error -110

Loaded modules:

host:~# lsmod | grep hcd
ehci_hcd               28136  0
ohci_hcd               18276  0

usbcore               112644  6 ehci_hcd,ohci_hcd,usb_storage,usblp,uhci_hcd

Does anybody have an idea what to do about this?

My system:

host:~# uname -a
Linux host 2.6.18-5-vserver-686 #1 SMP Wed Sep 26 20:10:39 UTC 2007 i686 
GNU/Linux

host:~# cat /etc/debian_version
4.0

Thanks in advance!

Andreas
