In my eyes, kernel was trying hard to do the reset. Otherwise, what these lines mean? Why would the external hub ask kernel to do its own reset? And why is the "EMI?" line in the middle of the looping cycle? Doesn't this show kernel is at fault? No, I don't have any other hub, but could buy some, sure. But is always a gamble which one is really a good one. :( generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:04F2:0116.0007: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.1/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 hub 2-1.2:1.0: port 1 disabled by hub (EMI?), re-enabling... usb 2-1.2.1: USB disconnect, device number 13 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -71 generic-usb 0003:046D:C050.0008: can't reset device, 0000:00:1d.0-1.2.4/input0, status -32 Second: How can I enable my eSATA port? I did not reboot yet, so how can I dump current status of the eSATA port which does not recognize any new devices. I hope this is a driver issue and not a hardware issue. So if I can provide some debug info for anybody I would be glad if that helps to find out why the eSATA port claims to be dead completely.
