Yes, it happens with 2.6.11-rc1 on my PowerPC, but not with 2.6.10 (or before), or on my Sony VAIO laptop. However, it does not prevent it from recognizing devices and/or having 'hotplug' load the appropriate module. Alas, when it does load 'usb-storage', it generally gets an oops, as previously described, which seems to prevent the use of that device. Not being able to use USB devices on the PPC (nor fireware on the VAIO laptop after suspending) cause grief for me; 'lsusb' is just a minor annoyance by comparison. PLEASE let me know if there's anything i can do to help track this down! -- JM - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
