USB devices with Mini-A connectors not detected
After a bit of a struggle yesterday to get ALSA working (it is
now working without anything in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf),
my machine (Devuan jessie) did an automatic backup last night to
a WD Passport.
Although I can mount it and access its contents, when I plug it
in, dmesg says:
usb 3-12: new full-speed USB device number 49 using xhci_hcd
usb 3-12: New USB device found, idVendor=08bb, idProduct=2904
usb 3-12: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
usb 3-12: Product: USB Audio CODEC
usb 3-12: Manufacturer: Burr-Brown from TI
usb 3-12: ep 0x85 - rounding interval to 64 microframes, ep desc
says 80 microframes
input: Burr-Brown from TI USB Audio CODEC as /devices/pci0000:
00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-12/3-12:1.3/0003:08BB:2904.0009/input/input22

[Burr-Brown from TI USB Audio CODEC ] on usb-0000:00:14.0-12/input3
When I plug in a USB key, it automounts and dmesg reports that the
partition can be seen:
...
sd 38:0:0:0: [sdh] Mode Sense: 4f 00 00 00
sd 38:0:0:0: [sdh] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't
support DPO or FUA
sdh: sdh1
sd 38:0:0:0: [sdh] Attached SCSI removable disk
EXT4-fs (sdh1): recovery complete
EXT4-fs (sdh1): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
I have three WD Passport drives with micro-USB OTG connectors. They are
seen and can be mounted. Dmesg says for example:
...
ses 41:0:0:1: Attached Enclosure device
ses 41:0:0:1: Attached scsi generic sg10 type 13
sd 41:0:0:0: [sdh] 1953458176 512-byte logical blocks: (1.00 TB/931 GiB)
sd 41:0:0:0: [sdh] Write Protect is off
sd 41:0:0:0: [sdh] Mode Sense: 47 00 10 08
sd 41:0:0:0: [sdh] No Caching mode page found
sd 41:0:0:0: [sdh] Assuming drive cache: write through
sdh: sdh1
sd 41:0:0:0: [sdh] Attached SCSI disk
But I have three older Passports with mini-A connectors. When
I plug them in, dmesg does not respond at all. No device interface
is constructed (no /dev/sd*1 except for the plugged in backup drive).
In short, USB keys with type A connectors automount as expected.
WD Passports with micro-USB OTB connectors can be mounted
and accessed. WD Passports with Mini-A connectors are not
seen.
Hald is running. The modules usb-core, usb-common, hid and usbhid
are loaded.
