A comment I found last night (I can't find it now) linked this bug to this thread about the regulator driver being broken: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.omap/56105 In my testing (-rc4+), it looks like the regulator problem is indeed preventing the USB Ethernet port and the hub that it's attached to from being powered up. Keshava Munegowda indicated that he would be working on this during the week of April 17, 2011.

Ok, I'm not really getting the whole discussion, but it seems the issue is fixed.. at least somewhere. There seem to be 2 fixes for this issue: Patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/14/45 And the patch by Munegowda as mentioned here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg45918.html Mark, can you confirm that the patch https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/14/45 fixes the issue for you?
I can confirm that the patch at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/14/45 *does* fix the issue. Cheers
