Hi,

[1.] One line summary of the problem:
Certain USB devices wake up the system after power off

[2.] Full description of the problem/report:

The computer no longer shuts down properly after upgrading from Ubuntu
11.04 to 11.10 (this is from kernel 2.6.38 to 3.0.20 (*)), it powers on
immediately after being shut down.

WORKAROUND: It doesn't happen if any of the problematic USB devices are
not plugged.

I perform the following the following steps:

1. Switch to a virtual terminal (no XWindow) and log in.
2. Run: sudo poweroff
3. The computer shuts down (I see how all LEDs switch off and hear the
hard drive stopping).
4. Immediately the computer powers on again.

It only fails when the device is plugged in on the back USB ports, NOT
in the ones in the front panel.
    - Fails with: WiFi card or pendrive.
    - Doesn't fail with: printer, keyboard/mouse wireless receiver,
bluetooth dongle.

If I boot passing acpi=off to the kernel command line, the computer
doesn't shut down.

After bisecting I've found the problem was introduced in commit
c61875977458637226ab093a35d200f2d5789787. OHCI: final fix for NVIDIA
problems (I hope).
That patch affects shutdown for all OHCI controllers, not just NVIDIA
controllers.  On the other hand, it's strange that the problem is
triggered only by devices that don't use OHCI.

Have you checked for any BIOS updates from the manufacturer?

The lsusb output attached to your bug report indicates that only two
devices were plugged in: the WiFi card and the wireless receiver.
What happens if the only USB device attached is the WiFi card?  (For
best testing, unplug the receiver and other things before you boot.)

Please post the output from:

	ls -d /sys/bus/pci/drivers/?hci_hcd/*/usb?

Also, post the output from "lsusb" with the WiFi card plugged
into a rear port and the pendrive plugged into a front port.

Sorry, I forgot to check for BIOS updates. After updating the BIOS the problem is fixed.

Thanks,
Àlex
