xoox Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Hi. I have bought a USB 2 PCI card for an older PC with only USB 1 The card uses a VT6212 chipset (VIA). I bought this card: http://www.alternate.de/html/productDetail...ml?artno=FPUV02 When booting Mandriva 2007, I am flodded with messages like this: hub 2-0:1.0: over-current change on port 1 This also keeps coming after the login screen is displayed and is continously written in my message log file (this keeps the HDD busy...). The USB 2 also does not seem to work properly as nothing happens when I connect a USB drive to it (connecting to the USB 1 gives me a pop-up where I can choose to open the drive in a new konqueror window). But the card and the USB2 funcionality seems to be recognized by Mandriva (in the hardware section of the MCC - I cannot copy the exact text as I am not using this computer right now). Any ideas how to make this card work with Mandriva? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xoox Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 I bought a new card with NEC chip and everything works just fine now. Maybe Linux had a problem with the VIA chip or the former card has some hardware malfunction... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
