My Ubuntu OS now no longer finds ANY USB devices.
Asked by
hipokondriak
about 3 days ago my maxtor USB 2 500gb external HDD suddenly stopped working within Ubuntu 8.04.
Tested drive with a WinDoze XP SP2 machine and the drive appears to work without hitch and when tested by that OSś disk checking tools - it passes those check without a problem.
My PC BIOS says that the USB subsystem is activated yet in Ubuntu 8.04 nothing is working. Well it was until about 3 days ago. I dont want to reinstall as I have downloaded a vast amount of software and I do not want to do that again unless there is no other option.
Note: I have plugged USB2.0 memory sticks into ALL 6 USB sockets and not activity.
I have plugged in a web-cam and it is not picked up either...
suggestions please
