This definitely is a power budgeting problem. Your device needs up to 500 mA, but bus-powered hubs can only provide 100 mA per port. If you want to use the device as before, you should plug it directly into the computer or else get a powered hub. Alternatively, if you don't mind the possibility that the device might not have enough power to function properly, you can configure it manually. In this case you would need to do: echo 1 >/sys/bus/usb/devices/2-.../bConfigurationValue You'll have to fill in the "..." with the appropriate pathname, since there isn't enough information in the bug report for me to tell what it should be. This explains a lot... thanks for the fast answer, i didn't think of that it's a passive hub i'm using. Please close this bug. |
