I've had similar problems to the ones you and Felix describe. I was using a USB audio device with a fancy D/A converter. It'd get reset or stutter ever time I'd use my KVM. My KVM had a USB port that would get swapped between whatever systems it was currently connected to. That was causing some kind of surge or inrush that was causing the whole bus to reset. I also noticed that wasn't the only thing that would do it. Just about any power or USB related event would cause bus-resets. The problems were specific to that system and to NetBSD running on it. It was using an AMD USB chip, too. I've had more problems from those versus Intel. Until I swapped out the system about four months ago, the only way I could use that little Brown-Burr USB audio device was to put it on a USB hub with it's own discrete power supply. I got even more paranoid and put the power adapter on a battery backed up line conditioner, too. I got some nice recordings after that. Thanks, Swift

Thank you Felix I will try as you said. I will use the the power supply of a laptop, and I will test it for serveral days/weeks. The problem is very random. As you can suppose. Neither my pc ( a nettop) or my lapto have ground.

I had this with a USB frame grabber under Windows with a new PC, you could hear the disconnect and connect sounds each time (and recordings were always borked). Finally hunted it down to the exact moment when a fridge (!) with its compressor nearby turned on and off. USB together with modern PSUs seems very susceptible, google it. This is heavily dependent on your computer's PSU, the case, good grounding of the mainboard, and if it's related to a mains interference like above, there are special filters for such equipment (maybe the already present filter inside is broken). Other expensive solutions, if nothing else helps, are an online UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) for your PC or a different PSU reputedly... Felix
Disconnect/connect usb ports
Several times per day I receive disconnect and connect messages from usb devices: mouse and keyboard (it is ps2 keyboard attached to a usb/ps conversor). Both disconnect at same time, and usually connect at few seconds at same time (when they don't connect I have to reboot the pc). This NetBSD 7.0 amd64 on a Pineview PC. Any idea?
