On my machine I sometimes (rarely yes) boot Win2000. However, I've noticed that after I've shutdown windoze and boot linux later, my two usb mass-storage devices aren't detected until I boot linux again! So everytime I used windoze I need to boot linux twice to get the USB devices working. Loading and unloading modules doesn't help. Everything USB works fine in linux afterwards (and beforewards). This behavior seems a little quirky and annoying. There are no error messages, just a lack of device detection messages. /proc/bus/usb/devices won't show the drives when this happens, but all USB ports are detected.
Relevant system components: kernel 2.4.20 USB devices: HP DVD+RW 200e IOMEGA ZIP 250 USB Powered AMD Athlon 1800 XP Gigabyte GA7VRXP w/USB 2.0 As I'm not subscribed to the mailing list (I get so much mail as is), please be sure to reply to my email as well as the list. Thanks. note: I'm quite pleased however with linux's performance with these two drives. Everything works with the HP drive so far (I have yet to try 2.0 with it and DVD writing in linux, but DVD reading, and CDRW works great, as well as audio playing). thanks to the kernel guys for their hard work! - jackp __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
