Hi, I run Ubuntu 12.04, with the Ubuntu version of owfs, 2.8p13 lsmod does not show ehci etc. I guess this means usb is not complied as modules in ubuntu??
Is there an equivalent to rmmod, modprobe in that case? I have had no success with e.g. sudo echo suspend > /sys/bus/usb/devices/4-1/power/level The system says "no access". Do I do it the wrong way? I have however read the LinkUSB manual, and I find that I can access the hanging unit (on my remote system) by finding the right baud rate (19200 is an example): sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 19200 I can list sensors on the bus, and I can change the baudrate to 38400 or 57600 and back to 19200 by the LinkUSB commands, and then reconnect with the new baud rate But I can't figure out how the reset the baud rate to 9600 (which I suspect could solve the problem?) Can the explanation for the problem be that after an unplanned shutdown the baudrate is at a non-default value, and owserver is unable to figure that out? I am able to reproduce all this with my home system; briefly cutting mains leaves owserver nonresponding, and I have to unplug/replug the LinkUSB. For this system I can also interact with the LinkUSB (before unplugging) by finding the right baud rate.
