Unable to enumerate USB buses

So I went to flash my N900 as since the PR1.1 upgrade it randomly reboots a lot and I get:

Code:

Unable to enumerate USB buses

I am using Mandriva 2010.0

I am guessing if I use an Ubuntu Live I wouldn't have this issue. So I was just curious is anyone knows.

Code:

lsusb

Bus 001 Device 016: ID 0421:0105 Nokia Mobile Phones E61 (Firmware update mode)

I had to install package "libusb-compat0.1_4" in order to get the "libusb-0.1.so.4" file the flasher complained about.

Re: Unable to enumerate USB buses

I'm replying because Google returns this page when searching for "Unable to enumerate USB buses"

The solution (on all Linux distributions) is to prevent the cdc_phonet kernel module from loading.

How you do that depends on your distribution, try searching for "yourdistro kernel module blacklist".

For example, on openSUSE 11.4 you add this:

Code:

blacklist cdc_phonet

to this file:

Code:

/etc/modprobe.d/50-blacklist.conf

When you're done flashing you can remove the line.

PS: on SUSE, if you have x86_64, you need to install this package first:

Code:

libusb-0_1-4-32bit
