Do you have the USB drivers compiled in or as modules? I know some years

hardware, but maybe USB 2.0 has similar issues?
Anyway, since then I've always compiled them as modules, and haven't had
a problem, other than once when I booted my backup installation which was
outdated and didn't have modules for the current kernel, and I ended up
without keyboard and mouse since those are USB. Fortunately I have the
ACPI power switch detection setup to shut-down, so I was able to do so
gracefully and reboot to a different kernel, but it was certainly
frustrating, as I prefer to compile in all the basics. I've been going
to test a newer kernel with the drivers compiled in, but so far haven't
gotten the appropriate round tuit... =:^(
They're compiled-in, I have module support disabled for this kernel.
I've had some Google hit suggesting that a similar problem was solved by
loading first the ehci_hcd, then the ohci_hcd. It was relatively old
message, but given also your input it is worth a try.
