USB device not accepting address: error -110

[Luke Hoersten]

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.15-26-k7

I have a USB devices: mouse, camera, ipod and printer plugged in. The only device that works is the printer. Everything used to work in 2.6.15-25-k7. Mouse works with PS2 converter but not straight into USB.

[Dean (dean-s-wood)]

I have exactly the same problem. Printouts are identical.

Error messages stop when ehci_hcd is removed but am still unable to mount usb. I have looked around to find a solution and it seems this is a reasonably common problem.

[Luke Hoersten (lukehoersten)]

Dean, do you have any more resources of information about this problem? Can you list what devices you were trying to mount? I find it very strange that my printer still works but mouse, camera, ipod, and usb key do not.

[Luke Hoersten (lukehoersten)]

Now none of my USB devices work, not even my printer.

[Chuck Short (zulcss)]

Please attach the output of dmesg as an attachment.

Thanks
Chuck

[Dean (dean-s-wood)]

Hi,

Please find attached a copy of dmesg. I tried it twice and have attached
both as they appear slightly different whendetecting the usb hub but I
don't know enough to tell if this is relevant.

The second one also contains the repeated error message which is sent.

Thanks

Dean

[Gustavo Azambuja (gazambuja)]

ok, ok, I'm stupid, after write the comment, i search more info and find this:
http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html#ts6

Q: Why doesn't USB work at all? I get "device not accepting address".
A: This can be one of several problems:

    * High speed devices sometimes have problems with cables used to connect them. They're more sensitive to signal quality issues than older usb 1.1 full or low speed devices. If the device works OK at full speed on the same system, after you "rmmod ehci-hcd", this is likely the problem you're seeing. There are a lot of things you can do to change signal quality........ [cont]

with this simple test "rmmod ehci-hcd" my pendrive USB work fine!!!

ok, good luck for all, and look the FAQ ;)
PD: sorry for my english (i'm spanish speaker)

[Luke Hoersten (lukehoersten)]

Thanks for the advice. I will try this but I'm not sure this is the problem because *all* of my USB devices do not work so I know its not a problem with the cable quality. It may be a hardware bus problem but when I tried the 686 kernel instead of the k7 kernel, the errors do not occur and all my USB devices work fine.

[QuinnHarris (ubuntu-quinnh)]

USB worked fine in 2.6.15-25-386 but no longer int 2.6.15-26-386 and edgy 2.6.17-7-386.

"rmmod ehci_hcd" does allow USB devices to work at 1.1 speeds.

This appears to be a duplicate of bug #24925

[Joel Oliver (joelol75)]

Confirming as well. I believe it is a problem with the BIOS in my case as I cannot mount 2 different USB devices in WinXP (Dual boot, no I never really use XP) and these work fine on my other Edgy system. One is a 80GB hard drive usb and the other is a ATI remote wonder. WinXP sees them right off the bat and says they are 'MALFUNTIONING' and to replace them. The device name usually pops up, doesn't get the name though....

System is GigaByte GA-M55plus-S3G (F6 BIOS)
Athlon 64x2 4200+ (32bit Edgy)
Integrated Geforce6100
NForce 430

I believe the 6100/430 part is the important one as my 'google' research shows this problem all over with 6100/6150 on ASUS boards as well.

Things I tried:
modprobe -r ehci_usb
Change usb 2.0 to 1.1 in bios (Changed error messages)

Found F7 BIOS update (12/21/06 release)

Booting with the irqpoll noapic nolapic acpi=off options (In various combos and created a keyboard that doubles everything i type.

[nassausky (nassausky)]

Found out it's probably an internal cabling problem (maybe noise interference going to the front or faulty ports) Plugged my usb thumbdrive into the rear port and it now works.

My suggestion is if nothing else works, try something simple like this.

[Luke Hoersten (lukehoersten)]

Changing ports and devices does not work. It happens with all of them. On the other hand, I did notice that this only happens when my iPod is plugged in on boot. I've tried different cables with the same problem and it happens on any port. There is no problem if I simply boot without my iPod.

[Tero Karvinen (karvinen+launchpad)]

My problem was bypassed by updating BIOS and using USB ports on the motherboard. At least the USB drive was automatically mounted after that.

I had the "not accepting address: error" on both freshly installed Gutsy and a previous Ubuntu release. Probably all Ubuntus after some kernel version were affected. I also have seen this same problem on other computers. Before finding a bypass, I had tried many solutions proposed in this bug and many similar USB mounting bugs in Launchpad.

To bypass the problem
0) Prequisites: I had Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop amd64, motherboard Intel Guardfish dq695gf with BIOS 5773. Problem: USB key is not mounted when connected, but it prints some lines to syslog and dmesg.
1) BIOS Update: Downloaded latest BIOS update 6002 CO6002P.ISO from Intel, burned to CD. USB related updates were mentioned in BIOS release notes. Updated BIOS. Booted.
2) Mobo ports: Connected USB stick to motherboard USB port on the back of the computer.
3) Success: Rythmbox "Music Player" automatically started. I could play music from the USB stick. Thus, the problem was bypassed.
4) Side effects: Front USB ports don't work at all anymore, and no lines are printed to dmesg or syslog when USB stick is connected. USB lights are not lit when connected to front USB ports.

[Andreas Warberg (andreas-warberg)]

I have this issue on a Dell Inspiron 5100 with latest BIOS.

It has two high-speed usb ports. Until recently I operated with a single external USB disk in one of the ports, which works fine.

I tried adding an extra usb disk but it fails with the same message. The first usb disk continues to work, however.

I have attached my dmesg output.

[Buzz (buzz-piersol)]

I am still using "sudo modprobe -r ehci_hcd" in order to use my USB flash drives.

from my dmesg:
======================================

[15606.471610] usb 1-2: device not accepting address 6, error -110
======================================

also recently updated my BIOS to the latest version.

also get this message shortly after each bootup. Wonder if it's related:
======================================
[ 292.819263] irq 7: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
======================================

I haven't used "irqpoll" but from what I've read it is used when a system is really broken. However, I do use "noapic" as a boot option.

Just wondering why this bug still exists as I have seen reports back to 05? I'd like to see USB2.0 speeds again...

I'm having this problem on my wi-fi usb dongle (zd1201 chipset).
sometimes it works, but sometimes it won't accept address and i get "device descriptor read/64, error -110".

I recently upgraded my H/W (p35+ich9) and it became worse - i can now get the device working only if is connected before boot, and even then
it sometimes fails with this error. i tried connecting it to different ports with no success.

had this problem ever since feisty on all kernels. now using hardy beta with 2.6.24-15-generic.

(see also bug #212888 for more details/logs)

[atdt911 (ori-ab)]

forgot to add that in my previous H/W configuration (nforce2 chipset) i solved this problem by unplugging then plugging the device back again.
unfortunately it doesnt work with my new H/W config.

[sniffy (konwal1)]

I solved the problem on my Desktop-PC by shutting down and unplugging the PC for a while to become unloaded.

Hi Guys,

This appears to be a duplicate of bug 88746. Care to take a look? I realize it's a rather long thread but I'd draw your attention to https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/88746/comments/228 which was from one of our kernel devs. Hope that helps. Thanks.

Im green to this so please excuse me if i put info in there that shouldnt be there.

The USB ports on my desktop seem to work fine front and back. I am running 8.04 LTS x86 on there and everything seems to be running fine. I'm going to try that on here and if it works i will post the update.

Hi,

i would like to add my voice to this chorus.

i have a laptop t61p lenovo that can not access a Corsair usb flash pen 8gb (flash voyager)

but on the same port i can use a sandisk 4gb without any problem.

another anomaly is that when i first received this pen drive with default format it worked fine.
but it now fails after i formatted using mkfs.vfat.

hope this helps to understand what is wrong.

Nicolas

I've just run into this bug.

Since a couple of days I've been trying to recover data from my notebook HD and for that purpose I got an empty usb box but ubuntu would not see it.

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux-image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test.

--or--

2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD.

Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.

I solved this issue by changing the USB cable. It must have been defective. :)

Confirmed controller handoff problems between ehci_hcd & uhci_hcd causing

Intrepid kernel 2.6.27-3 seems to have corrected the error on this system.

error 110 looks to be a hardware connection issue, from what I've been reading in other website posts while searching for error 71. But defiantly give Intrepid a try before switching cable/ports and cold boots.

[jcasanov (jcasanov)]

I just installed ubuntu intrepid with kernel 2.6.27-* and error remains... (see bug 261710)

[harvest316 (harvest316)]

I can confirm that a cold boot rectifies this.

FYI: I have a Dell Dimension 5100 with a Samsung USB Memory Card Reader, and I'm on Intrepid 2.6.27.9.13

[chrono13 (chrono13)]

A solution (increasing the timout) per Mario Italo, bug 261710 worked for me.

1. Always back up config files before editing them:
sudo cp /etc/modprobe.d/options /etc/modprobe.d/options.backup1
Now open /etc/modprobe.d/options in write mode:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/options

2. Add the line:
options scsi_mod inq_timeout=20
and save the file.
Seemingly reloading the module (scsi_mod) does not cause the new configuration to take hold. What worked for both he and I was to reinstall the kernel.

3. Type uname -a and take note or memorize the exact kernel version numer you are using.

4. Use the above kernel number to reinstall your kernel. For me it was:
sudo aptitude reinstall linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic
This will take a couple of minutes.

5. Reboot and test. This fixed it for Mario and has worked great for me. Note that there is probably a better way to make the new configuration take effect other the reinstalling the kernel. Whoever knows what that is could post that and we would have a better solution.

This confirms that the bug is just that the device does not wake up quickly enough. These instructions are for anyone who has these key(s) and is receiving the -110 (and possibly other) errors while attempting to use them.

A test to see if the above fix will fix your problem is to insert the key, and shut down the machine. Start it back up, if it recognizes the drive and mounts it (or lets you mount it), then the above steps should fix the bug and allow you to use the key normally.

Good luck, and thanks again to Mario Italo.

[zasq (zasq)]

Hi.
I use intrepid with 2.6.27-9-generic kernel on dell inspiron 1501 with the same problem. The workaround from Mario and chrono13 didn't work for me. I found this message in dmesg after doing it:

hda-intel: IRQ timing workaround is activated for card #0. Suggest a bigger bdl_pos_adj.

What does that mean?

As it might be connected to this problem, let me tell you that I also have the following bugs:

Devices like my printer or wd passport external hdd keep crashing. When I try to mount them again after such crashing (or just after having them unmounted manually before), they won't work anymore. I have to restart the whole system. Everything seems to be connected to an apic-error. (I need apic, so the option -noapic won't do. Besides, the problem should be solved and not hidden).

As it also might be a bios problem: I have the latest version of bios 2.6.3 .

Please let me know if you need more information.

[Mary Gardiner (puzzlement)]

In some ways, there seem to be two problems here:

1. some people get these error messages, and their hardware doesn't work

2. some people get the "unable to enumerate USB device" warnings, but their hardware does work. Leann Ogasawara notes at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/256767/comments/14 that this is known to upstream and they consider it harmless, it's the report of a real potential error.

However, in case #2 there is still a problem from an end-user point of view: the error message is logged to syslog once a second. This is undesirable for all kinds of reasons, disk use, annoyance if I have to give syslog to someone for *real* hardware problems, etc. The logging of this error should be radically reduced, I'd really prefer, say, once an hour to once a second.

[Valent (valent-redhat-bugs)]

I can confirm this bug on Fedora 13 with 2.6.33.3-85 kernel.

I testet this issue on few different laptops, when booting into Windows on those same laptops USB HDD is recognized without problems and device works.

This is Linux kernel bug.

Do you need more feedback from me? How can I help so that this bug gets fixed sooner?

[Ray (ray-redhat-bugs)]

Actually this appears to be a bug in the fedora distribution.

As you say the devices work in windows. They also work under other distributions.

[Chris (chris-redhat-bugs)]

The device which caused the problem for me was a USB card reader, in the end I bought another one which has worked fine under Fedora. I'd be willing to donate my old problematic card reader to the cause if its of any use.

I'm having this problem with my 'SanDisk Sansa e260'. I used to work in F11, then didn't work in the last few months. I just upgraded to F13, and it still isn't working.

I don't have a Windows computer to test this on, but I am fairly sure that the MP3 itself works just fine. It doesn't have any 'USB mode' settings, it just operates as as storage device.

I am not plugged in through a hub, nor are there many USB devices attached to the machine.

[Valent (valent-redhat-bugs)]

I still have this issue with latest F13 updates. Is there anyway to troubleshoot and find which patch is causing this issue?

Kernel devels do you have a suggestion? Is there some kernel I can test and report back if this bug is fixed or present?

I don't know if you need a new one or not. If you do create a new bug not it here, and reference this one and the previous one in the new bug. Which makes me think that this is redundant. I don't know that anyone working on the software is actually paying attention to these bugs.

There are approximately 1000 open kernel bugs.

[Ray (ray-redhat-bugs)]

Well at least we have a status report. It would be nice if even if nothing was happening on a bug because of this backlog that we get a comment from someone to this effect every six months or so.

Is there anything we can be doing to help track down this bug?

Yes, actually.

Likely one of the most helpful things you can do is email the upstream linux-usb mailing list and report the issue to them. They are the domain experts and having them directly in contact with the people having the issue eliminates the middle-man.

Things to note in the email would be:

- USB controller/chipset
- What kind of devices present this error (usb id)
- Which kernel(s) exhibit the problem

Given that this bug seems to have been around for a really long time, that last question might be a bit difficult to answer.

If anyone gets responses from upstream, we can help build test kernels and patches if needs be. Just put a URL to the mailing list archive there in this bug.

The issue occurred on kernel-3.6.5-1.fc17.x86_64 again.

[Christopher (christopher-redhat-bugs)]

Latest kernel looks better:

Such brief respite in kernel 3.6.5-2

Now I'm getting hangs where Gnome Shell is unresponsive, Ctrl-Alt-F2 brings up a terminal but it's filled with endless "unable to enumerate USB device" messages, pumped out at about 3 every second.

[Fedora (fedora-redhat-bugs)]

This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora
'version' of '16'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

[Fedora (fedora-redhat-bugs)]

Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
