USB not working after dist-upgrade to etch
OK, A while back, I ran apt-get dist-upgrade, before doing the massive update, everything was running great, USB, Hal, Udev, all worked. Now, after dist-upgrade, USB, Hal, and Udev, do not want to work. I was at a point to where I could insert a CD, and it would mount, and open up nautilus to /media/cdrom, but in my search of getting USB working, I may have killed that.
Right now, automounting, and whatnot, is really not all that important. USB devices are though. I have a 64mb USB flash drive, that I use quite often, and now I can only use it in windows, which I despise quite greatly. Checking lsmod, and as far as I can tell, every module related to USB is loaded. Here is the output of lsmod | grep usb Code:
usb_storage 48320 0 Here is the output of dmesg | tail -n17 after I, unloaded, and reloaded usbhid, and usb_storage Code:
eth0: no IPv6 routers present This is all puzzling me, and I am now ready to kill... Does anyone have any information, suggestions, whatever, that may help me in getting USB working? I am running the 2.6.19.1 kernel. |

You might try $ apt-cache search usb --names-only and see if you can identify any apps that are missing. Also "gnome-mount" fixes some similar issues. I'm not sure if it's in Etch, tho. It may be only in Sid. |
No, I compiled the kernel myself before running dist-upgrade.
I installed a few USB things, as well as "gnome-mount" but it doesn't fix anything. I am about to download, and install the linux-kernel-2.6.18-3, and header files with Synaptic, run that kernel, and see if USB works. I'll check back here in a few hours, when the download is done. (I'm on dial up...-_-) |
New kernel, and kernel headers are now installed, and running, and USB is working!
I really don't know why USB would not work, since USB drivers, and whatnot where all compiled..as well as loaded. |
