[Oberon] AW: USB mouse not recognized

[Stauber Sven Philipp]

Hi Rene,
 
I could reproduce this error. At system startup, the UHCI driver could not enable ports if certain (for some it worked) USB devices were already connected to them. The driver was a bit too optimistic by assuming that the HC will immediatly enable a given port when it's told to do so...
 
To fix this problem, modify the procedure AosUsbUhci.UhciController.ResetPort:
 
Look for the following two lines:
 
SYSTEM.PORTOUT(ports[port], SYSTEM.VAL(INTEGER, SYSTEM.VAL(SET, status) + PortEnabled));   
SYSTEM.PORTIN(ports[port], SYSTEM.VAL(INTEGER, status));
 
Insert a Wait(10) between them. I'll implement a somewhat more sophisticated solution that will be included in the next release, but for now, that will work:

SYSTEM.PORTOUT(ports[port], SYSTEM.VAL(INTEGER, SYSTEM.VAL(SET, status) + PortEnabled));   
Wait(10);
SYSTEM.PORTIN(ports[port], SYSTEM.VAL(INTEGER, status));
  
Thanks for reporting the bug.
 
Regards,
Sven

Betreff: Re: [Oberon] New (i.e. a week old) crazy-fresh release



Hi Ulla,

I just downloaded the crazy-fresh, and it seems that still USB mouses
are not recognized. Is there any reason for this? How can I "work
around"? Is this just my problem, or does everybody have it? Didn't we
already have this some time ago?

Thanks in advance
Rene
