Is that something to worry about? I have the following USB devices connected: - a harddisk - a headset - a keyboard - a mouse The problem was exactly the same with SUSE Linux 10.1. I didn't report it because I hoped it would go away when updating to openSUSE 10.2. But the messages are still there, no change at all. I already had the harddisk and the keyboard connected while using SUSE Linux 10.1, I added the mouse and the USB headset after updating to openSUSE 10.2. Any further information I should add? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
