I know this is quite an old message to follow up on, however I've hit this very problem with a Digi Edgeport/416 which used io_ti Something changed between Kernels versions 2.6.24 (which works as soon as you plug it in) and 2.6.27 (which makes you unplug it and plug it back in before it works) (corresponding to Ubuntu versions 8.04 & 8.10) however I've reproduced the problem with Fedora and using generic kernel.org kernel (up to 2.6.35-git3) Doesn't seem to be dependant on whether its on UHCI (Intel) or OHCI (nVidia). I can do usbmon traces, but what the best way of putting them up? The files are quite large... from kernel logging (with debug on) I get similar to this repeated many times (again whole thing is quite large) Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462616] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: static descriptor matches Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462620] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found bulk in on endpoint 0 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462623] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found bulk out on endpoint 1 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462627] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found bulk in on endpoint 2 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462630] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found bulk out on endpoint 3 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462633] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found interrupt in on endpoint 4 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462637] io_ti 3-2.2.4:1.0: Edgeport TI 2 port adapter converter detected Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462641] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: usb_serial_probe - setting up 2 port structures for this device Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462652] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: choose_config - Number of Interfaces = 1 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462655] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: choose_config - MAX Power = 0 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462659] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: download_fw - RUNNING IN DOWNLOAD MODE Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.462665] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ 0 for 1 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.463571] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - ERROR ffffffb9 Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.463577] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: download_fw - DOWNLOAD MODE -- BAD I2C Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.463582] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: destroy_serial - Edgeport TI 2 port adapter Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.463586] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: port_release - (null) Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.463591] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: port_release - (null) Aug 6 08:57:48 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 124.463600] io_ti: probe of :1.0 failed with error -5 The equivalent when it works is: Aug 6 08:59:02 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.241560] usb 3-2.2.4: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 39 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538657] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: static descriptor matches Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538664] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found bulk in on endpoint 0 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538668] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found bulk out on endpoint 1 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538671] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found bulk in on endpoint 2 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538675] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found bulk out on endpoint 3 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538678] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: found interrupt in on endpoint 4 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538682] io_ti 3-2.2.4:1.0: Edgeport TI 2 port adapter converter detected Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538687] drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: usb_serial_probe - setting up 2 port structures for this device Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538701] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: choose_config - Number of Interfaces = 1 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538705] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: choose_config - MAX Power = 0 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538708] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: download_fw - RUNNING IN DOWNLOAD MODE Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.538716] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ 0 for 1 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.543567] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ 2 for 4 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.543573] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ 2 for 4 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.548549] usb 3-2.2.4: read_download_mem - length = 4, data = 01 09 00 72 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.548558] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: check_i2c_image Type = 0x1 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.548562] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ 6 for 9 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.548566] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ 6 for 9 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.554565] usb 3-2.2.4: read_download_mem - length = 9, data = 81 08 16 88 02 47 02 00 00 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.554578] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ f for 4 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.554582] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ f for 4 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.559548] usb 3-2.2.4: read_download_mem - length = 4, data = 02 02 3e 75 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.559556] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: check_i2c_image Type = 0x2 Aug 6 08:59:03 cbmgpw1 kernel: [ 199.559560] drivers/usb/serial/io_ti.c: read_download_mem - @ 3e15 for 4 ........
