is there a way to re-attach a USB device (in my example; USB Keyboard)

experiencing, where a certain other Device only works right if i FIRST
plug in a USB Keyboard, and the other one second. If i could script it
so that even when the machine reboots, my script basically detaches my
two USB Devices, then attaches the first one, then the second one, i
think i can work around my above issue. Its a nasty way of doing things,
but right now i am in urgent need of a solution, even if it is ugly.
No, there is no such mechanism.
It will be better to find & fix the real problem.

Yes i think you are right. All this comes from a prior Message with
Subject "USB RFID Reader misreads". Even though it works elsewhere, it
is very possible that the Reader i am trying to get working is garbage,
in which case maybe there is not much i can do, except trying to find
some workaround, or spend more money to get a better Reader than i have.
