it has been reported that the 2.6.8 kernel has
fixed the handling of
USB resets, so now it's possible to use a Linux firmware loader to get
these devices to work.
Does this have anything at all to do with hotplug-20040920?
No, the change was in the kernel.
Ah - thanks. I was interested in getting an Ozone for when I travel but
had held off. I do run a 2.6.8 kernel so maybe I can go ahead now.
This new hotplug caused all of my USB to stop working. I went back to
the old one. Later I was told that I needed something new called coldplug.
