Thank you for reporting this bug, as it is a USB Hardware detection issue this should be filed against the linux kernel. The main issue here seems to be the power management discrepancy, which is seen when you try to connect devices to a USB Hub.
One question I have is do you still have these problems without using a USB Hub? ~qbalazs~ ** Package changed: ubuntu => linux -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1202544 Title: USB device could not be recognized in Ubuntu 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1202544/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
