In these cases, you had to check the server log. Which you can do if you
had started the server with logging or --debug. (Please note the pre-3.1
debian packages have all logging disabled in the build due to a
misunderstanding.)

So, a hardware problem.

Sure. Any devices can go missing if the bus is jumbled. For example
because of short circuit or a malfunctioning device on the bus.

Disconnecting all external devices first did nothing?

You need this for debugging anyways (or you build 2.8p15 from sources.)

Don't change this yet, please.

On the photo I saw you have an old Raspberry Pi B. Have you updated the
firmware files on that Raspberry (fixup.dat and dtb files, and kernel) ?

I ask that because it could be an I²C problem, too. Earlier firmware
revisions had various bugs.


Kind regards
