Whenever i reboot my computer i get the kernel log fille up by the following messages, it happens that fast that it (at various degrees) hinders the normal input typing, i.e: i start typing "echo whatever" then it stops at the w and after a sec i get "echo wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww" i've read that is a synchronization problem from the radio base of my logitech trackball. (The keyboard is normal PS2). Simply unplugging and replugging the usb connector usually solves the problem. This started happening with 2.6.29 (r5 IIRC) (on an nforce based motherboard) and is still present (much more noticeable) on 2.6.31-r6 on an amd785 motherboard. I don't know if it's an upstream bug. here's what i get in the kern.log Dec 7 17:26:35 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:35 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:35 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:35 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: urb ffff880226932f00 path 3 ep1in 5c160000 cc 5 --> status -62 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: port[2] reset timeout, stat 00000313 Dec 7 17:26:36 neverland kernel: hub 4-0:1.0: state 7 ports 3 chg 0000 evt 0008 Dec 7 17:26:37 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: GetStatus roothub.portstatus [2] = 0x00100303 PRSC LSDA PPS PES CCS Dec 7 17:26:37 neverland kernel: hub 4-0:1.0: state 7 ports 3 chg 0000 evt 0008 Dec 7 17:26:37 neverland kernel: usb 4-3: reset low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2 Dec 7 17:26:37 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: port[2] reset timeout, stat 00000313 Dec 7 17:26:37 neverland kernel: hub 4-0:1.0: state 7 ports 3 chg 0000 evt 0008 Dec 7 17:26:37 neverland kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:12.1: GetStatus roothub.portstatus [2] = 0x00100303 PRSC LSDA PPS PES CCS Reproducible: Sometimes here is emere info: neverland ~ #

attach output of lsusb -v, and let us know if gentoo-sources-2.6.32-r1 shows the same problem
Created attachment 216968 [details] the requeste lsusb -v output
Is this still an issue with gentoo-sources-2.6.32-r3? Those error messages indicate that the module has stopped responding. If you're willing, it might be useful to grab some traces using usbmon and then send this upstream: Documentation is here: /usr/src/linux/Documentation/usb/usbmon.txt
Please let us know when you have submitted this upstream at http://bugzilla.kernel.org
