Digispark not recognized on Linux
« on: January 28, 2015, 08:16:20 pm »
I've run through all the Linux troubleshooting guides and the device is still not recognized when I plug it in. (Worked last week on a Windows laptop, but that computer sadly imploded.)

sudo udevadm monitor shows nothing at all when the Digispark is plugged in.

demesg|tail gives the following results:

[ 2480.456054] usb 7-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71
[ 2480.684042] usb 7-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71

[ 2482.412081] hub 7-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 1

only thing I'm finding via google is a comment that using a powered USB hub might help, so I have ordered one.

All other help appreciated - from comments in the interwebs, I don't have a lot of confidence in the powered hub solution.

Thanks,
