Hi, Sorry my bug report fails the laugh test. I didn't find the problem funny either. Here's how I determined X.org turns off USB power. 1) Palm charging from USB. LED goes off when I start X. 2) wireless mouse "base station" plugged into USB. power/activity LED goes off when I start X. 3) remove .xinitrc so that KDE not started. LEDs still off. 4) exit X. no power LEDs. reboot, LEDs re-light. I've not seen anything on the mobile lists. A minimal workaround would be some way to turn USB power back on (and/or display status). My USB controller probes as follows: Oct 16 08:57:59 kent kernel: usb0: <Intel 82801DB (ICH4) USB controller USB-A> on uhci0 Thanks.

T41s seem common, but also have lots of problems > ...Received on Sat Oct 16 2004 - 18:10:30 UTC
