Looking at the dmesg output in http://ix.io/DOg: [ 0.405942] usbcore: registered new interface driver smsc95xx [ 5.821104] smsc95xx 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0x45E1 I don't know enough about USB... is it possible to control which CPU handles the individual USB ports, or on some other level (than ports)? -- Best regards, Jesper Dangaard Brouer MSc.CS, Principal Kernel Engineer at Red Hat LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brouer
