Hello,
I've got the problem that the USB mouse device will cease responding after some time. "dmesg" then shows:
usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2, frame# 699 usb.c: USB device not accepting new address=2 (error=-110) hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.1-2, assigned address 3 usb.c: USB device not accepting new address=3 (error=-110)
Sometimes, doing a rmmod/insmod-cycle on "usb-uhci" and "hid" helps re-enabling the USB device.
Googling turned up lots of similar problem reports (some dating back to 2.4.9) - but no solutions, as it seems to me.
I already tried various USB mouse devices (known to work flawlessly with other OS), so I think a hardware problem is unlikely.
I've come over this problem on two computers (one with Via KT266, the other one with Intel ICH3M chipset), with the only similarities "USB-uhci" and "USB mouse device". This problem is not new, I already experienced it since I started using USB devices with linux (2.4.18?).
While it occurs maybe 1-2 times/month on the computer with VIA chipset, it seems to happen much more frequently on the notebook with ICH3M (after a few hours usage).
This problem happens regardless of USB support being compiled in statically or as modules.
Attached is dmesg boot output and output of dmesg after doing rmmod/insmod with no success. The corresponding kernel .config is available at "http://xor.at/files/kernel-2.4.25-config".
