Hi Gene, As root, try "rmmod"ing then "insmod"ing the usb kernel modules. This (whilst painful) should reset any problems with your USB subsystem. Eg. usbcore usb-storage usbdfu hci_usb hid usb-uhc Also check /var/log/messages to see if there are errors being reported when the USB connection is made and dropped. Cheers, Ben -- .O.
