1 In a recent upgrade to my laptop EHCI supported was added to my
2 kernel, I thought that this would be a good thing because I have a USB
3 2.0 external harddrive that I connect to my laptop for additional
4 storage and media. I also use a Logitech Quickcam Deluxe for Notebooks
5 which is a USB 1.1 device and since that upgrade I have had issues
6 with the webcam being disconnected at random. After some research into
7 the cause it appeared to be an issue with ehci support and usb 1.1
8 devices. My question is for my laptop, a dell inspiron e1405 with an
9 intel ICH7 chipset is there a way to use both USB 2.0 support and USB
10 1.1 support in a way that wont cause conflicts of my computer. the
11 output of lspci is displayed below. Right now my current workaround is
12 to have all usb support built as modules and ensure that ehci does not
13 get loaded. Thanks guys
