Comment 314 for bug 85488

someone asked:

"t2000kw: Do you have the USB id for that USB braille device that was showing this issue?"

No. I read about it earlier in this or some other thread. It was a problem for someone. If you want to follow up on that one, you can try following back on this thread. I think it was mentioned not that long ago. If I remember correctly, there was a "hack" to work around at least one of the devices' problems with the USB suspend problem. If the general problem is fixed it would most likely remedy that person's problem and others who are not able to do the hack.

It was interesting to see that Red Hat is concerned enough about the problem to do something rather quickly. I'm still here, though, patiently waiting for a fix or the next release. If Gutsy doesn't address the problem, I'll look into switching distros, possibly to another Debian based one so I don't waste a lot of the time I've invested in this one. I can wait until then, booting to XP when I need the scanner, then grabbing the file from the XP drive when in Linux to do things with it.
