Hello, I am experiencing this weird problem with my laptop's usb ports.. If I do not plug in my usb mouse before booting, it stays "dead", i.e. does not work at all, no light, anything. If I have plugged it before booting, it works ok, but after the system is up, if I remove it and try to plug it back, it is again "dead". And quite randomly, my usb ports refuse to recognize a usb memory stick.. You can find the dmesg output here: http://users.tkk.fi/~sriikone/dmesg.txt I am running suse 10.3 (32-bit version) on hp tx1000 (amd 64-bit dual core processor) If you remember, long time ago I was asking about sporadic hard locks that occurred on my laptop and now I am passing the following options to grub (from /boot/grub/menu.lst): ------------------------------- ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: linux### title openSUSE 10.3 - 2.6.22.17-0.1 - hard lock debug root (hd0,5) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22.17-0.1-default root=/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST9160821AS_5MA6DMFC-part6 vga=0x317 resume=/dev/sda5 splash=silent showopts nohpet nolapic noapic apic=verbose initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.22.17-0.1-default ------------------------------ I suppose this has something to do with apic ?
