So if you boot with no devices plugged in, and then you plug in (say) a flash drive, it doesn't get detected? > I sadly don't have a lot more to go on, but xdarklight on IRC (I believe == > Martin, CC'd) confirmed the findings with a grab bag of USB devices he had > sitting around as well, and may be able to provide CONFIG_USB_DWC2_DEBUG > output. > > Any further guidance on where to look to debug this issue would be appreciated. > > As a sample, some devices which, when plugged in (either alone or together) > do not cause any USB device detection (see attached lsusb -v files): > > Samsung T7 USB 3 drive > Samsung-Branded Silicon Motion USB 3 Flash Drive > > Some devices which, when plugged in cause all USB devices to be detected: > > Mushkin-Branded Kingston USB 3 Flash Drive > Kingston-Branded Kingston USB 2 Flash Drive > USB-3 MicroSD Card reader (lsusb/testing by xdarklight) > SanDisk USB 3 Flash Drive (lsusb/testign by xdkarlight) This could simply be a question of power. Most of the flash drives and the card reader probably don't require very much power, whereas some of them need more. You can this, to some extent, in the MaxPower fields of the lsusb -v listings. Do things work better if you plug these devices into a powered hub rather than directly into the computer? If the hub can provide the power that these devices need, the computer won't be overloaded.
