Description Fr 2006-09-13 07:14:10 UTC 
Distribution: Debian amd64 unstable
Hardware Environment: palm Tx linked on USB, ehci_hcd module managing USB
Software Environment: palmsync tools
Problem Description: After a few connection on my palm tx (palm-xfer -p
/dev/pilot -l), I see the following error appear in my /var/log/kern.log
The device /dev/pilot is then unusable.

Sep 13 15:46:40 localhost kernel: usb 1-4.4: new full speed USB device using
ehci_hcd and address 11
Sep 13 15:46:40 localhost kernel: usb 1-4.4: device descriptor read/64, error -71
Sep 13 15:46:40 localhost kernel: usb 1-4.4: device descriptor read/64, error -71
Sep 13 15:46:40 localhost kernel: usb 1-4.4: new full speed USB device using
ehci_hcd and address 12
Sep 13 15:46:41 localhost kernel: usb 1-4.4: device not accepting address 12,
error -71
Sep 13 15:46:41 localhost kernel: usb 1-4.4: new full speed USB device using
ehci_hcd and address 13
Sep 13 15:46:41 localhost kernel: usb 1-4.4: device not accepting address 13,
error -71
Sep 13 15:46:46 localhost kernel: usb 1-4.4: new full speed USB device using
ehci_hcd and address 14

Then it never ends up allocating a new address, it go until address 127 then
starts again from 2

The first two connections on my palm goes fine, then it breaks.
Unloading/Loading visor module does not make it work again.

does this bug still occure with the latest 2.6.20 kernel?

If so could you please provide some more information:
* lspci -vvv
* lsusb -v
* cat /proc/cpuinfo

thanks,
Markus

Frederic,
I can encourage even try now with 2.6.22-rc4 - lots of USB fixes went in. If this still fails, can you please provide info requested in #1?
Thanks,

Frederic -
How did the testing go, did you have chance to try the latest kernel?
Thanks.

Closing this bug for now. Please reopen if any new updates, or if confirmed with latest kernel.
