Public bug reported:

When connecting my usb stick to the computer, it is not automatically
discovered anymore. Even 'lsusb -v' does not show anything beside the
usb hub.

Instead, 'cat /proc/kmsg' produces messages like

[17180190.832000] usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 
5
[17180191.336000] usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 
6
[17180191.840000] usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 
7
[17180192.344000] usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 
8
[17180192.848000] usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 
9

and so on, about two messages per second. The address numbers go up till
127 and then start again at 0.

The problem is obviously related to uhci_hcd.ko, since removing it stops
the messages (and reloading it starts them again).

I have this bug for 2 days now, the last time I used the stick was about
two weeks ago, when everything was functioning properly. I had already
migrated to dapper then, so it must be some issue with the last two
weeks' updates.

I have been able to resolve the problem once by inserting and removing
various modules like sd_mod, ehci_hcd, uhci_hcd, usb_storage, but I
haven't been able to reproduce it :-/

Loading sd_mod, by the way, gives the following error message:

Driver 'sd' needs updating - please use bus_type methods

but it loads nonetheless.

Any help would be appreciated!
