Integrated Rate Matching Hub Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Note that I have booted with the GRUB Option : GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash usbcore.old_scheme_first=1" I work with an old Android smartphone in fastboot mode. The smartphone is connected with a long USB cable (5m). In fastboot mode (and only with this mode), the devices is not reachable . There is error like this : usb 3-1: device not accepting address 12, error -71 So, I had "usbcore.old_scheme_first=1" in kernel command option and then I can reach the device in fastboot mode. But I performs some operation on the smartphone and sometime the device hung . In this case, my USB port hung too and it is impossible to connect any devices on it (smartphone or usb key for e.g). I have to reboot my Linux, in order to have USB port working again.... Note that, during operation the entire Linux freeze few seconds... My question : - There is a method to avoid that my USB port hung - If not, there is a method to have a working usb port without rebooting ?
