As far as I remember, this bug must have been fixed some time ago, as the problem did not persist on the acer 1520 before I gave it away...
Marking as fixed. Please update otherwise if needed. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/564459 Title: USB devices not detected when hotplugged Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Steps to reproduce: * boot with usb device unplugged (mouse, usb stick, external hd) * plug the usb device Observed: device not detected (usb stick or hd not mounted, mouse doesn't work). Expected: device ready to use. NOTE: vanilla kernel linux-image-2.6.32-02063211-generic_2.6.32-02063211_amd64 does behave normally: hotplugged devices work as expected. NOTE: usb devices work as expected if plugged before booting. NOTE: this bug affects karmic kernels too. I'm not sure if it is an update regression. NOTE: I can confirm this bug on two different acer laptops (the Aspire 1520 used to report it, and an Aspire 4520) NOTE: This bug supersedes bug #425755: the original report is the same as bug #435352 (fixed), but most of the comments seem to confirm this present report.
