USB Port stopped working

[PropAAS DBA]

All;


One of my USB Ports has stopped working, trying to determine if it's a 
hardware failure or a Linux issue. I'm running Fedora 29 - KDE spin on a 
Lenovo P52S

If I grep for USB from /var/log/messages the results include this:

Dec 10 10:16:32 P52S pcscd[2117]: 00000000 ccid_usb.c:1266:ControlUSB() 
control failed (1/3): -7 LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT


Thoughts?


Thanks in advance...

Use a different port to boot from a LiveUSB and see if it responds.

Do other USB devices work in this port?

USB device could be bad.  Try a different port.

Also, if over current is triggered, the port is "suppose"
to log you out. A power off is suppose to fix this.
(If a laptop, you may have to remove the battery.)

Though not what you asked, some older computers are only
bootable from USB 2 ports.  Frustrating when you plug
into a USB 3 port.
