I have had 2 laptop USB ports die slowly (all ports slowly got flakier, until the caused slowness issues from seemingly random interrupts). I suspected it to be heat and poor cooling design around the usb chips. So far 2 previous models slowly (not from the same labeled provider) became less and less stable with disconnects more and more often.

I'm now running fedora 31 on my system at home and at work. On both systems I occasionally notice all my xinput settings have reverted to default, as if I unplugged my mouse and plugged it back in (even though I didn't unplug it).
Has anyone else noticed USB weirdness like this? Looking at dmesg, that seems to be what the kernel thinks happened:

Looks like a little less than 8 hours after the booted, the kernel decided I just disconnected and reconnected the mouse.
I have no idea what an EMI is, but that's what starts everything. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
