Hi, I had no problem with a USB 3.0 port in my Asus N43SN since I bought a laptop (~2 years). Recently I replaced a motherboard to the new one (N43SL.413 looked the same as the first one) due to a problem with a graphical chipset and after that a USB3 controller stopped to be even detected. $ lspci | grep -i USB 00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #2 (rev 05) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #1 (rev 05) (in the past there was also an additional USB3 controller - AFAIR Fresco Logic FL1000G USB 3.0). I though it was a problem with a motherboard, but after boot with different kernel the controller showed up. I started to suspect a bug in kernel, but after two days (I use it only from time to time with my USB3 hard drive) I noticed that USB3 port/controller is not visible anymore with any kernel. I don't know if this behavior is normal for a hardware malfunction. In /var/log/messages there is no info about the USB3 controller (see log below). I tried pci=nomsi in Grub, but with no effect. I could try to replace the mother board to the new one once again (I don't have the old one), but it could be hard to convince service that this is a problem with hardware (the port in the new motherboard worked fine twice). I don't any other OS to test it on it. Tested with kernels: kernel-3.10.4-100.fc18.x86_64 kernel-3.9.11-200.fc18.x86_64 kernel-3.9.9-201.fc18.x86_64 and in addition with System Rescue CD. What could be a reason? Can I force kernel to "see it" (there is no module xhci_hcd - it is built into kernel)?
