It turned out that the plug was not pushed fully home at the computer home. I assume that one or both of the data lines were not making contact. Sooo ... check your cables and connections before getting too keen on hacking at your system. There would probably be some value in the drivers checking for the possibility of broken data lines and reporting them to the user. Something like "Data error on USB device. Check your cables and connections." -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387161 Title: JMicron drive 152d:{2329,2338,2339} cause USB resets on ATA smart probing -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
