Bugzilla Bug 150508

As written in : http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148769
I can't use g15daemon because it always write 
usbfs: usb_submit_urb returned -28
in my syslogd which takes 100% of my CPU.
I also put on the ebuild announcement some other info.
I must say that I get the same result with all kernels revisions I tried
(lots...), all with exactly same behaviour.
If I compil it myself without ebuild from svn I have the same problem also...

Please ask me for any needed infos in order to solve this issue :)

emerge --info, please.

Sorry, didn't want to post it twice, here it is :

How did you compile UINPUT support (into kernel or module)?
Please give me the output of
  grep UINPUT /usr/src/linux/.config

If it is `m' for module, check `lsmod' for its state (is it loaded?).

If it is not loaded, please run
  modprobe uinput

Then retry g15daemon.

No it's compiled in the kernel, and I had also tried with it as a module : same
result.
I think g15daemon try to access something uncorecctly, but it could be
undirected to g15 keyboard.
In case that could help, I have configure, dmidecode, lspci under : 
http://gregoire.favre.googlepages.com/linux
Not related, but in "/usr/share/g15daemon/contrib" a "perl testbindings.pl"
gives :

Starting usbd before g15daemon don't seems to change anything neither...

Thank.

By the way, error 28 is:
  ENOSPC /* No space left on device */

Do you have other devices plugged in via USB at the same controller or via a
hub?
If so, please try unplugging all other devices.

...

The current ebuild does not install the perl language bindings (python
neither). This will be fixed in a revision bump to come. Thanks for the hint.

If I remove the "hub" from my monitor (Dell 2405FP with two usb ports and cards
reader) the message is gone, so the bug is between this.
Any idea on how to use both ?
Thank :)

This seems to be an upstream bug, and I filed it at the project's bugtracker
[1].

I don't think there's much you can do about it right now but to buy an extra
USB controller or remove the hub. You can also try to have a a look at a
similar problen in [2].

I think this bug can be closed when the upstream maintainer responds at his
tracker.

Oh :-)
I have found one combinaison of usb ports on my computer (I got 8) which don't
have this problem !!!

Thank you very much and have a great day :)
