Puppy can't see memory stick in USB 1.0 port
I'd like to use an usb stick for data transfer between two PCs. Puppy recognizes it on the one with USB 2.0 but not on the PC with old USB 1. On Win98 I knew about a driver that made it work, I cannot find a similar solution for Puppy, can somebody help? Thank you!
Hi pixelstuff
I don't know the answer but I thought I'd ask a few questions and give this a bump as no-one else has picked it up.
Can you give any details of the hardware, manufacturer, model?
Where did you get the win98 driver from, what is it called?
I presume that on the USB1 machine you are still able to get win98 to recognise the device, ie the hardware is still good?
What version of puppy are you using?
Have you tried using both MUT and Pmount to recognise it?
Try running lsmod from a console before inserting and also with the device inserted. Is there a difference?
Post your lsmod output.
I probably won't be able to help but this should provide more info for someone that can.

USB problem
Hello HairyWill and thank you for bumping, I was not looking anymore. I have a bit more information in the meantime. On my boyfriends similarly old PC with USB 1 I can boot puppy from this stick with the help of a wakepuppy floppy. Means there Puppy can read via USB 1. So there must be a problem with the usb on this PC. Win 98 is no longer on it. I had Debian before and it recognised an USB 1 Zip drive but not my USB 2 mp3player. Puppy does not see that ZiP drive either. Maybe it gave up the ghost in the meantime or Puppy can't see the whole USB port. Xproc system information lists:
180 usb
189 usb_device
The USBViewer finds nothing.
Can I go anywhere from here?

hi
I can find this block of messages, when the stick is plugged in its exactly the same:
usbcore: registered new driver usbfs
usbcore: registered new driver hub
Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
usbcore: registered new driver usb-storage
USB Mass Storage support registered.
Looks like it should be working, doesn't it?

If it was working, you should see the following message when you plug the stick in:
What do you get when you type
Paul
Code: Select all
usb-storage: device found at 4
usb-storage: waiting for devce to settle before scanning
Code: Select all
lsmod | grep usb
I have the same problem. Puppy won't recognize my USB flash drive. I've tried with a 1GB Apacer formatted FAT16, FAT32, and ext3. I also tried with a 4GB Kingston with various formats.
I've tried using MUT but the drive doesn't show up.
When entering dmesg at the console, I get the following readout:
usb 5-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
usb 5-3: device not accepting address 3, error -110
Thanks in advance for any help with this one.
