Bug Description
I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.3 amd64 on the Dell PowerEdge R610 and seeing an issue where the OS does not recognize a USB device that is plugged into the front USB ports unless it was plugged in during boot. After boot if I insert the device into the back USB port, the OS detects it immediately. However, if I plug it into the front USB port, it does not detect it.
If I run a lsusb command, then at that point the OS does detect the USB device though. I'm attaching dmesg outputs with a USB drive attached during boot and with no USB drive attached during boot. I see the same behavior even with a USB CD-ROM as well.
