[CentOS] Re: What is connect-debounce wrt usb?

on 1/14/2008 11:55 AM Robert Moskowitz spake the following:

I get the following message on a Centos 5 system (really a Trixbox 2.4 build on Centos 5):

Jan 14 00:12:28 sip2 kernel: hub 1-0:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled

What does this mean?

This message occurs about 30 times/sec for about 45 sec. Then my Bluetooth token starts up.

Your USB device or its cable has a poor connection. Can you try it in another port? The debouncing is supposed to cover for the rapid make-break that would appear to the system as you plug/unplug a device. Yours seems to have a less than tight connection, and that is why you get the debounce errors. It could be a loose port or a bad cable at either end.
