This problem occurs *ONLY* on my desktop. I will discuss what happens on my laptop for comparison.
My laptop got fresh install of Karmic beta with grub2 (vs. upgrade from Jaunty on desktop, manual update to grub2). My laptop is connected to the same KVM switch (via docking station usb port). I tested booting the laptop into Karmic which docked and active on KVM switch. There are no console messages between grub2 and xsplash on laptop. The same "interrupt endpoint not found" shows in dmesg on laptop (but not on vt1 console during boot, which is the problem on the desktop): [ 4.253142] input: Logitech USB Receiver as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb5/5-1/5-1:1.1/input/input7 [ 4.253235] generic-usb 0003:046D:C521.0002: input,hiddev96,hidraw1: USB HID v1.11 Device [Logitech USB Receiver] on usb-0000:00:1d.0-1/input1 [ 4.256730] input: No brand USBKVMSwitcher as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.7/usb1/1-4/1-4.1/1-4.1.2/1-4.1.2:1.0/input/input8 [ 4.256784] generic-usb 0003:10D5:000D.0003: input,hidraw2: USB HID v1.10 Keyboard [No brand USBKVMSwitcher] on usb-0000:00:1a.7-4.1.2/input0 [ 4.256792] usbhid 1-4.1.2:1.1: couldn't find an input interrupt endpoint [ 4.256811] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbhid [ 4.256813] usbhid: v2.6:USB HID core driver [ 4.258135] Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 6.2, id: 0x81a0b1, caps: 0xa04793/0x300000 [ 4.258140] serio: Synaptics pass-through port at isa0060/serio1/input0 [ 4.300250] input: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input9 [ 4.312657] usb 1-4.1.4.1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9 here is lsusb on the laptop: niko...@nikolay-laptop:~$ lsusb Bus 001 Device 006: ID 10d5:000d Uni Class Technology Co., Ltd Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0424:2524 Standard Microsystems Corp.
