It won't revert, there's more stuff on top of it. And it is a fix, so reverting it is not really a good idea anyway. I suspect that the USB controllers are put into low-power states at one point and they don't generate wakeup events. I'm not sure, though, why this is related to power resources. Can you please send a dmesg boot log and the output of acpidump from the affected machine? Rafael -- I speak only for myself. Rafael J.
