You can maybe also post it to the linux-usb mailing list |
| 19 |
(linux-usb@×××××××××××.org), I think there is at least one person |
| 20 |
there who works exclusively on XHCI stuff in the kernel. |

You might also want to check if there are any firmware updates for the |
| 23 |
USB3 chipset on your motherboard. lspci should reveal the chipset. My |
| 24 |
old motherboard had a flaky USB3 chipset (Renesas/NEC) that could only |
| 25 |
be updated from Windows, so I never bothered with updating it, but |
| 26 |
there are some that are updatable from within linux or from a DOS boot |
| 27 |
disk. |
