Howdy All, I recall that when I first installed Opensuse 12.1 x86_64 my usb 3.0 controller and external HD were correctly detected. However, during one of my updates things broke and the xternal drive is just not detected anymore. The controller is ASmedia chipset based: 06:00.0 USB Controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1042 SuperSpeed USB Host Controller 07:00.0 USB Controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1042 SuperSpeed USB Host Controller 08:00.0 USB Controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1042 SuperSpeed USB Host Controller 09:00.0 USB Controller: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1042 SuperSpeed USB Host Controller This is the error message I see in the output of dmesg once I plug my external usb 3.0 HD: [ 1654.523453] usb 13-1: new SuperSpeed USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd [ 1654.536392] xhci_hcd 0000:07:00.0: WARN: short transfer on control ep [ 1654.536480] xhci_hcd 0000:07:00.0: WARN: short transfer on control ep [ 1654.536576] xhci_hcd 0000:07:00.0: WARN: short transfer on control ep ...

My current kernel is 3.1.10-1.9 I also tried the 12.2 beta which uses kernel 3.4.x and that did not work either but the error was different. Any ideas what I may try?
