[Bug 541580] Re: /proc/bus/usb gone missing

2010-05-28 Thread jedchase
My 32-bit x386 after upgrading to 10.04 from the 8 LTS stops on restart
with the message failed to mount /proc/bus/usb.  Is there a fix for
this?  If I don't need /proc/bus/usb, then why does it come up everytime
and how do I get rid of it?  If I do need it, how do I get it to mount
without all of the hassle of it stopping on bootup everytime?  Thanks!!

Upon further investigations, I found out that from 2.6.31-20 onwards
will not provide /proc/bus/usb.  If this is the case then this will not
be classified as a bug. Also, further investigations confirmed that
Plextor firmware load does not require /proc/bus/usb and it is possible
to do a firmware reload using by simply linking .usbfs/devices to
/dev/bus/usb.

Hence this bug report can be closed now.

2010-03-19 Thread gdesilva
It appears that the same problem has occurred with earlier versions of
the 64bit OS. I am told that in later versions of kernel /proc/bus/usb
will not be available. However, a workaround of sorts for this has been
already found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/507824

The solution is as follows;

It is not a long term solution, but I found another solution, for
getting /proc/bus/usb back again and no need for usbfs.

First I put my user to sudoers for /bin/mount and /bin/umount
Then I changed my scanner script to do the magic.

Before running my scanner the script will do:
sudo mount --bind /dev/bus /proc/bus

while on exit of the script it fires the command:
sudo umount -l /proc/bus

mount --bind /dev/bus /proc/bus or
mount --bind /dev/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb
will make /proc/bus/usb accessible /proc/bus/usb for some hardware (although 
this will cause the other directories under /proc/bus to be hidden). So you 
should umount again, after use.

It is a reasonable workaroud and worked fine for me. Just should make
sure to unmount after using the device otherwise /proc/bus/pci and
/proc/bus/input etc gets hidden!

2010-03-18 Thread Gurvender.Bahia
** Description changed:

  I have been using Plextor USB device successfully which requires usbfs
  mount on /proc/bus/usb to do a firmware reload. After the kernel upgrade
  to 2.6.31-20 I found that usbfs mount fails as there is no /proc/bus/usb
  available. I reverted back to 2.6.31-19 and the problem disappears - ie.
  /proc/bus/usb is available for usbfs mount.
  
  Any suggestions on how to fix this?
  
  Thanks

+ 1) I'm also facing the Exact same issue after Kernel upgrade.

+ 2) I would also like to add that Samsung Phone 5600 keeps on restarting
+ when detected as Mass Storage, but it works fine with XP (this is
+ happening with the earlier Kernel versions also)
+ 
+ Please help 
+ Thanks
