I am writing with a problem that I've googled all over for, and that I've recompiled my kernel 4 times for. I'm willing to go further, but I feel like I should bring it up here first. The usb pen (thumb) drive I have has worked with gentoo linux before, but now, when I plug it in, all I get in dmesg is:
hub.c: port 2, portstatus 100, change 1, 12 Mb/s hub.c: port 2 connection change hub.c: port 2, portstatus 100, change 1, 12 Mb/s
but no recognition of the device and assignment of a scsi device or
anything in lsusb (unlike when I plug in say this usb trackball here).
I have seen things mention problems with APIC and IOAPIC so I tried all
permutations of having that enabled and disabled (in the kernel and the
BIOS). Then I tried disabling acpi from the kernel boot params, but that didn't change anything.
Has anyone else had this problem? This is a pretty standard Dell GX150 with an intel motherboard. No errors are reported, just the device is never recognized.
Thanks a lot, I will provide more information as necessary.
I am using an extremely patched 2.4.21 kernel (2.4.21-pfieffer sources from gentoo's portage, essentially the gentoo prerelease kernel)
Please reply to the list, so that any helpful information that comes out of this can be properly archived.
