Re: [SOLVED] USB Device (keyboard) problem

Do you actually have any problems with the keyboard apart from the dmesg spam?

Could be a dodgy cable and/or connector.

Seems to work ok,  I guess its just spam then?
Tried wiggling the cable, disconnect and reconnect.. I'll see if that helps anything.

Re: [SOLVED] USB Device (keyboard) problem

I've found another issue that might be related..  once in awhile the keyboard goes dead.
So I tried switching usb ports , doesn't help.

I found this script which seems to reset the usb , and it does end up working again.. :

#!/bin/bash

if [[ $EUID != 0 ]] ; then
  echo This must be run as root!
  exit 1
fi

for xhci in /sys/bus/pci/drivers/?hci_hcd ; do

  if ! cd $xhci ; then
    echo Weird error. Failed to change directory to $xhci
    exit 1
  fi

  echo Resetting devices from $xhci...

  for i in ????:??:??.? ; do
    echo -n "$i" > unbind
    echo -n "$i" > bind
  done
done
