Look in the kernel for the maintainers file, and see if you can see who is responsible for the code. Given that the drivers have stopped working, this is a regression, and it's actually quite a serious bug (or at least, seen as such). If you know who it is - or especially if it's a mailing list! - try pinging them, with a diff of the changes you had to make to get it working. IFF you get a response from that, then there's hopefully a good chance you'll get asked to help fix it, and the problem will go away :-) Cheers, Wol

The way I went about it was to comment out the offending lines in these files and recompile the kernel. It is a bit of pain, since I have to perform this manual editing with each kernel so far. You could try to comment out the lines which break your card for now and see if this fixes the problem. > Where can I post this problem?

I would start with BGO in the first instance: https://bugs.gentoo.org/ providing info on the affected hardware, the errors you've identified and the files you suspect containing the changes in the code. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

I'm not a programmer and I know nothing about C or kernel development, but I found that, beginning with 5.4.11, several changes were introduced in drivers/usb/core/config.c, that seem to be consistent with the message that appears now when I connect my card: [ 129.153850] usb 3-10.3: config 1 interface 2 altsetting 1 has a duplicate endpoint with address 0x85, skipping [ 129.153854] usb 3-10.3: config 1 interface 2 altsetting 2 has a duplicate endpoint with address 0x85, skipping Where can I post this problem? I've been using Linux for 20 years, but this is my first problem with the kernel. I found these forums: https://forum.linuxfoundation.org/categories/drivers https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-kernel-70/ And of course the kernel mailing list, but seems to be for developers. -
