USB help needed

[Michael George]

Hello!  I'm having some USB trouble with my machine.  I'm not sure if it is
due to hardware limitations or software problems...

I have an ASUS A7V motherboard with the builtin USB.

I have a USB keyboard and mouse attached to my 7.2, kernel 2.4.9-31 and they
work fine.

I just got a KVM switch so that I could use 1 kbd and mouse between my Mac and
Linux systems.  It seems to work fine -- to a point.  The switch is a Starview
SV231USB.

It seems that every time I switch away from Linux, the system sees that as a
disconnect of the USB devices.

That creates two problems:
1. For some reason, when I switch away from Linux to the mac, my FDD accesses
(interrupt issue?).  That's odd.

2. The bigger problem is that each time I come back to Linux, new USB device
numbers are assigned to the devices.  At about 73, the devices will not accept
the device numbers anymore, causing an error of -110.

If anyone can give em some direction on this, I'd be very grateful!  I hate
having to have two keyboards and mice...

-Michael

Careful.. most USB devices aren't supported outside of Windows, and 
scanners are no exception. Scanners are traditionally a no go under Linux 
but now adays several do work. However, the USB ones make a very short 
listing.

You will want to check out the SANE site at http://www.mostang.com/sane

I can't find your scanner listed as any of the supported HP ones. Unless 
it's a terminal no-go... you might get partial support with the sane-hp 
module.

Plus, stock systems are dangerous.. learn to compile your own kernels and 
hit the updates weekly ;)
