THUMBDRIVE locking up Knoppix...........why?

[TROLL1357]

:( :( :( ......Help I cannot get my Memorex 256mb thumbdrive to work in Knoppix. Everytime I hook it up shortly there after the laptop locks up.............why :( ? What type of code do I need. Can somebody please help me.

[firebyrd10]

have you tried any other thumbdrive to see if its only that one. Or if its a USB problem. Hwo bout if you boot without it? does it work?

[TROLL1357]

No I have not tried another drive.............I have booted with the drive connected and with out...........its weird I use it on a Windows OS and no problems what so ever.

[softwaretester]

I'm assuming this is a 3.4 issue.
A few people have had problems with 3.4 and the usb. It' s probably not the drive.
Try using 3.3 instead.

[TROLL1357]

Ok where can I obtain this version? :?:

[OErjan]

picka any of the ones below.

I had a USB smartcard reader lock Linux - it's described here :-

http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9016&highlight=

In this case it was fixed by changing the driver for the USB controller from usb-uhci to the alternative uhci driver. This supposes that your laptop uses this type of hardware.

Stu.....

Please post the output of

dmesg | tail

[softwaretester]

ok.. here's the dmesg and pspci -v for my toshiba satellite 4010CDS.
It's booted up using knoppix 3.4 May 10 using
knoppix26 screen=800x600 noddc noscsi to boot

The instant I put in a USB drive, it slows right down. (in fact, the usb keydrive has been removed, and it's a pain to type this slow)

I think it has to do with:
http://www.google.com/search?q=control%20timeout%20on%20ep0out

Please try with the 2.4.x kernel.
Please post back whether that fixes it.

for me, booting with the 2.4 kernel gets the machine to the
ACPI Bios Found activating modules ac battery button fan processor thermal

line, and then it just hangs there.

.... booting the 24 kernel with 'nousb' gets around that...
