Also check that rc.conf does not have statement to enable USB. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Danny MacMillan Sent: Wednesday, May 17, 2006 1:16 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Is there a method to not probe certain devices at startup? Hi, I have a FreeBSD 4.11 box (monowall, actually) that has apparently had a bit of a crisis with its USB controller hardware. This is completely irrelevant to me as it is a purpose-built box with no need to use USB now or in the future. The only problem is that when the box boots, it hangs for about 5 to 10 minutes trying to talk to the USB device. Here is an excerpt from dmesg (pardon the wrapping): uhci0: port 0xd400-0xd41f irq 11 at device 16.0 on pci0 usb0: on uhci0 usb0: USB revision 1.0 uhub0: VIA UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub0: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered uhci1: port 0xd800-0xd81f irq 11 at device 16.1 on pci0 usb1: on uhci1 usb1: USB revision 1.0 uhub1: VIA UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub1: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered uhci2: port 0xdc00-0xdc1f irq 9 at device 16.2 on pci0 usb2: on uhci2 usb2: USB revision 1.0 uhub2: VIA UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub2: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered uhub2: device problem, disabling port 2 Immediately before the last line of output above is where it hangs. I found some oblique references to device.hints on google but I couldn't find anything that describes exactly what needs to go in that file.
