On my laptop I can read and write an USB memory stick without problems. On my PII desktop,both running 10.2, I am not able to see this memory stick. On a reboot, I did the booting with the stick still in the USB contact and found in the boot process a longer pause at the USB part, long enough to write down the contents ;). It starts with: A new full speed USB device using uhci-hcd and address 2. device descriptor read/64 error -110 device not accepting address 2, error -110 This is followed by the same info for addresses 3, 4 and 5. My scanner picks up the second USB address without problems. I have googled around and did find some solutions which worked for some but not for me, e.g. modprobe -r uhci-hcd and other.
