log files of different OSes caused and not caused by this problem The OSes: 1. Windows 7 2. Windows XP 3. FreeBSD 9.3 are not affected by "new high-speed USB device number" problem. They works fine. The FreeBSD 9.3 just report about some error for umass:

These has problems: 1. ubuntu 14.04. It is loading too slow and after loading I can not visit sites that uses adobe_flash plugin. The browser is halted (see print_screen: ubuntu-14.04-ishalted.png). 2. cinnamon-mint-16 3. Fresh installation of 17.1 I also want to check how work mint 14 and 13, but I can not install them due to the installer error The detailed log messages for those systems see at attachment It seems some bug is introduced to the new kernels. If someone give me detaided instructions how to use bisect and how to compile/install kernels from source I can complete that.

A solution is to unload the ehci_hcd module, which is loaded every time the computer starts, using the command 'sudo modprobe -r ehci_hcd'. This works fine but unfortunatly ehci-hcd is necessary for using USB 2.0, so you lose USB 2.0 features. Another solution is to disable USB 2.0 through the BIOS setup. With some devices it is possible to read files normally (ie. copy files from an USB pendrive to the computer), but the device disconnects abrubtly when you start writing data on the device. In some devices it fails after writing a certain amount of data, probably the size of the write cache. Steps to reproduce: 1. Insert your USB 2.0 device (like a flash drive) 2. If the device is recognised and mounted properly try copying a file to it. 3. Comfirm with the 'dmesg' command that it isn't functioning properly. (I/O errors etc) 4. Remove the USB device 5. Unload ehci_hcd with 'sudo modprobe -r ehci_hcd' 6. Insert your USB device again. 7. Check that everything works. (copy some files, etc.) A disproportionate number of individuals report Alcor chipsets in the problematic behavior.
