Resetting a USB device
Posted by emeitner on Sun 21 Mar 2010 at 00:53
I wanted to reset a USB device without manually unplugging and replugging it so that I could see if the newly compiled modules would load OK. Someone suggested:
echo suspend >/sys/bus/usb/devices/5-2/power/level echo auto >/sys/bus/usb/devices/5-2/power/levelThis did not work for me. This did:
echo 0 > /sys/bus/usb/devices/5-2/authorized echo 1 > /sys/bus/usb/devices/5-2/authorized
