[suse-amd64] X.org, USB optical mouse and SuSE 9.3 AMD64 : bad behaviour at 3 (components) !
Hello I have just investigated this problem wtih USB mouse. There are four USB ports on my laptop. After the first loose of mouse, I plugged it in other port and it became available again. In the same USB port : no way. After the second loose, I tried an other port. I did this until to have no more use of mouse. At the step, I could see that the red led of mouse was off : none of USB ports supplied current for device. And the ethernet port was down at the same moment. And probably the sound was off too (like a previous time during a DVD reading). I tried a Knoppix live-distrib, a 3.8.1 one : there is the same kernel 2.6.11 ... but this is a 32 bits version. All worked fine. I think that the SuSE 2.6.11 kernel 64 bits has a big problem of reliability in device management. I will tried a live-distrib 64 bits as soon as possible for a better comparison.

I am using a Suse-10.0 Profesionnal, but with a 2.6.15 stock kernel, with the original kernel (2.6.13.15-7) some things never worked, like the network cards or some USB hard disk drives. My Laptop is a HP Pavilion dv8050EA. -- Bye, Manu. Break the rules! Break the windows! Use Linux! manu at valux.org http://www.valux.org Linux is here to stay.

I have a somewhat similar problem with my Compaq Presario 3140 AMD64 laptop and my 64-bit SuSE 10 . If I plug and unplug my cellphone (which looks like a dialup modem, utilizing the module cdc_acm) a few times, my whole USB system just dies. No hotplug events are recognized from any USB device (not just the cellphone) until I reboot. I have not tried the 32-bit kernel. Upgrading to 2.6.14 from the apt-get did not fix the problem. Can hardware be excluded as a cause for these problems? CF patheve2 wrote:

Hi, I had this problem with SuSE 9.0 But had no such problems with SuSE 10 Version 10 seems to detect ALL of my USB devices (but it does take a few seconds). Regards, Colin
