Nothing shows up in lsusb

Mar 17th, 2008

When I plug my wireless mouse, iPod, tablet, guitar processor, etc. into my laptop, they WORK, but they don't show up in lsusb . I just get a blank output.

Anyone have any idea as how to fix this?

Edit: Its a known bug in the developing hardy kernal. That's the price for the newest and greatest.

More like, that's the price of running ubuntu ;-p I run kernel 2.6.24.3 and it works fantastically.

If you're trying to say that you're using Linux 2.6.24.12, you're wrong.

The -x usually refers to the revision number.
