Hi: I have tried to get USB working on my system after upgrading to 4.0-STABLE. I am running on an Acer Aspire PIII450 box with built in USB support. Before changing the kernel config file to include USB support, my USB mouse worked (simultaneously with the ps2 mouse!), but my USB keyboard did not. After including USB support, both the USB keyboard and USB mouse do not work, and the boot up stalls briefly as it figures out that there is a problem at uhub2 (see last line of dmesg below). My ps2 keyboard and mouse, of course, continue to work fine. Also, the USB keyboard has a USB port. I wonder if it contains an internal USB hub. Could that be the problem with the keyboard and/or USB in general on my system? Do I need to have pnp support activated in the BIOS (I think I was advised by you or other BSD people to turn this off a couple of months ago). It seems strange because the system seems to find my USB controller, my USB keyboard and my USB mouse, but all USB support then fails. Any suggestions?
