Bug Description

In Oneiric recovery mode, my usb keyboard did not respond with my Asus P8Z68-V PRO motherboard. The recovery mode appears normally, but did not respond to any keys. So I can not select recovery options, with the arrow keys. I did try several usb ports. And another usb keyboard. (This motherboard did not have PS/2 ports.) Only when I plug in another usb keyboard, kernel messages appearing. It looks like this

Usb 3-1: new low speed usb device number 2 using xhci_hcd
xhci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: Warn: short transfer an control ep

Last but not least. In Natty Narwhal recovery mode, my usb keyboard does work fine.

It is not only with the 3.0 Kernel, but also with the 2.6.xx, so I think it is not kernel related.

By the way, my problem was with a Dell Precision T3500.

This bug affects me. I cannot get any USB keyboard to select menu options in recovery mode. I am using a Gigabyte P55M-UD2 motherboard which fortunately does have one PS2 port as a backup, so I was able to use an old keyboard to select options from the recovery menu. Once "continue with normal boot" was selected and it booted to the console, I was able to use my USB keyboard as normal.
