I have this problem as well, on all physical ports. The problem goes away on restart, and manifests itself after an unknown time. I have not been able to identify any factors which trigger this behavior.
Devices tried: - Cellphone - Bluetooth dongle - Microsoft Mouse - Dynex Keyboard Plugging in the cellphone does not generate any output to dmesg, but plugging in the other devices does. Example (from plugging in the mouse): [398551.537022] usb 5-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 18 [398551.660015] usb 5-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71 [398551.884019] usb 5-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71 [398552.100020] usb 5-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 19 [398552.220016] usb 5-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71 [398552.444026] usb 5-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71 [398552.660017] usb 5-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 20 [398553.068015] usb 5-1: device not accepting address 20, error -71 [398553.180018] usb 5-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 21 [398553.588017] usb 5-1: device not accepting address 21, error -71 [398553.588038] hub 5-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 1 These devices also do not get power, or at least aren't drawing as much current as they need to 'turn on'. Mouse does not illuminate, phone does not charge, bluetooth dongle's power LED does not illuminate. Rebooting fixes this as well. uname -a: Linux phobos 2.6.31-16-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 8 04:01:29 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux lspci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82865G/PE/P DRAM Controller/Host-Hub Interface (rev 02) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82865G/PE/P PCI to AGP Controller (rev 02) 00:06.0 System peripheral: Intel Corporation 82865G/PE/P Processor to I/O Memory Interface (rev 02) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB UHCI Controller #1 (rev 02) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB UHCI Controller #2 (rev 02) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB UHCI Controller #3 (rev 02) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB UHCI Controller #4 (rev 02) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 02) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev c2) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 02) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801EB (ICH5) SATA Controller (rev 02) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) SMBus Controller (rev 02) 00:1f.5 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 02) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7800 GS] (rev a2) 02:02.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
