Comment 708 for bug 88746

log files of different OSes caused and not caused by this problem

The OSes:
1. Windows 7
2. Windows XP
3. FreeBSD 9.3
are not affected by "new high-speed USB device number" problem. They works fine.
The FreeBSD 9.3 just report about some error for umass:

Oct 18 00:30:23 kernel: (probe0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): INQUIRY. CDB: 12 00 00 00 24 00
Oct 18 00:30:23 kernel: (probe0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): CAM status: CCB request completed with an error
Oct 18 00:30:23 kernel: (probe0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): Retrying command

4. cinnamon mint 15 (3.8.0-19-generic) works fine, but kern.log file is spamed by this messages:

Oct 21 13:54:17 kes-desktop kernel: [ 4260.504011] usb 1-2: new high-speed USB device number 34 using ehci-pci
Oct 21 13:54:17 kes-desktop kernel: [ 4260.572330] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2
Oct 21 13:54:17 kes-desktop kernel: [ 4260.788218] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2

5. ubuntu 12.04 also is not affected.

These has problems:
1. ubuntu 14.04. It is loading too slow and after loading I can not visit sites that uses adobe_flash plugin. The browser is halted (see print_screen: ubuntu-14.04-ishalted.png).

2. cinnamon-mint-16
3. Fresh installation of 17.1

I also want to check how work mint 14 and 13, but I can not install them due to the installer error

The detailed log messages for those systems see at attachment

It seems some bug is introduced to the new kernels. If someone give me detaided instructions how to use bisect and how to compile/install kernels from source I can complete that.
Thank you.
