As root you can cause the USB system to de-register the device at the driver level, this will not however turn off power to the port and might not be sufficient to 'reset' the device's internal micro/memory. ie. $ echo -n '3-1:1.0' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usbhid/unbind and $ echo -n '3-1:1.0' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usbhid/bind Change the '3-1:1.0' to match wherever your device is plugged in, Simon -- 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
