No, not that I can tell. "0000:00:1d.0" is the USB hub/controller, right? The idea is to use the uhci_hcd (USB1) driver instead of ehci_hcd (USB2). -- Maybe the module is not loaded? `lsmod | grep uhci_hcd` `ls /sys/bus/pci/drivers/uhci_hcd/` If they're modules: `rmmod ehci_hcd; modprobe uhci_hcd`; that'll force all USB ports into 1.X mode; may be worth a try before playing with dedicated per port bindings. Anyway, there might be something else going on: as both Karsten and Clemens noted, these "Intel Corporation Cougar Point [..] controllers use a different driver" and "There have been fixes recently. Try updating the kernel." robin _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
