Hi,

I have several external usb harddiscs/DVD-burner/USB-stick. They all worked great, until I did a emerge -uD world at the beginning of november. IIRC the udev system got updated. Now one harddisc does not even get recognized, one harddisc gets resetted after correct detection, ...

Here is the output for the constantly resetted disc:
Code:

The disc not getting recognized tells me this
Code:

usb 2-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 7
usb 2-4: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 2-4: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 2-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8
usb 2-4: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 2-4: device descriptor read/64, error -71
usb 2-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9
usb 2-4: device not accepting address 9, error -71
usb 2-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 10
usb 2-4: device not accepting address 10, error -71

The same happens for another usb-stick.

The strange thing is, I have another usb-stick, which I can work with normally. The defined udev rules in 10-local.rules work for this stick, udevinfo gets right information, ...

This is on a Athlon64, Nforce4 chipset. First discovered it after switching to gentoo-sources-2.6.14 (I did this when updating the whole system) but the problem stayed after going back to gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r9 (which have worked for months with this setup).

As one disc is not even detected any more, I dont think this a problem with wrong rules. As the problem appears on a kernel which has worked in the past, It is not a driver problem. This AFAIK leaves only hotplug-base and udev.

Any Ideas on this one? I need the data on these discs and dont have the space to copy them with knoppix or something like it to the installed discs.

Thanks for any suggestions
