USB device not recognized
I've been tinkering around following this article and managed to mount USB devices in Slackware 10.0. I followed the instructions in that howto and everything worked fine. I put together a couple of scripts to mount and unmount the device on /dev/sda1 and was happy. :)
This worked for a while. But rather suddenly the system isn't recognising the presence of any USB devices. cat /proc/scsi/scsi shows that no devices are attached. Dmesg also indicates no attached USB device. I'm stumped. Why would the system suddenly stop recognizing devices after rebooting? |
did you do any upgrading lately ?
what's the version of udev that you use ? ( "udev -V " ) egag |
No, no upgrading. udev -V gives me no output but this is a fresh install of Slackware 10.0 - I'm not sure if this tells this you or not.
I'm pretty sure I've done nothing that might affect this between it working and it not. Thanks. |
well... did you try different usb devices with different cables in more than one usb port ?
( just to make sure it's not hw . ) and also, did you check the whole dmesg for any errors or warnings ? egag |
Yes, I've tried it with several devices, all not working.
Err... dmesg did give some errors... I gave the command again to see what they were and post them... but... apparently the device is recognised. :rolleyes: Perhaps it is hardware after all. I'll try some of my flatmates' devices with it. Thanks. |
Not working again. With another device in a different port.
dmesg output: Code:
Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... |
