Once the device hangs, it then tends to refuse any input until power cycled. So it's clearly getting into some sort of undefined state, though whether that's because it only gets sent half of its firmware (ie, the hang occurs and as a result the hardware dies) or whether it's causing the hang by dying is unclear. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
