Archlinux user here. It doesn't matter whether I'm running LTS kernel 4.19.14-1-lts or 4.20.1.arch1-1, I get these very annoying USB issues with my Magewell XI100DUSB-HDMI. Most of the time it doesn't work. I seemingly have better chances of getting it working after a reboot. I don't know if this is a UVC issue or a USB issue on my Gen8 Thinkpad T480s. All I can say for a fact is that plugging this device into my Macbook Pro running MacOS via a USB-C dongle, is more reliable. I've had the same "plug in" issues admittedly on previous Thinkpad hardware and kernel versions. Another annoying aspect, is that it also seems to drop USB speeds when hot plugging. I need USB 3 else it won't be able to get 60fps at 1080p. https://s.natalian.org/2019-01-14/1547438681_2548x1398.png It's a crazy ritual with accompanying dance when I get USB3 and my /dev/video2 actually working. This is what dmesg looks like when it's flailing. [ 71.896534] usb 2-2: Disable of device-initiated U1 failed. [ 71.900554] usb 2-2: Disable of device-initiated U2 failed.
