USB/ekey bug?
#1
Hi,

I'm using eKey FSX app connected to an ekey using a USB-RS485 adapter, which uses /dev/ttypUSB0 as it's the only 'usb device' connected to Wiser.  Most of the time everything works fine, but sometimes I noticed my ekey gets disconnected - and when I check the logs I see a storm of:

repeats once a second while USB adapter is connected



If I re-plug the USB adapter to wiser, it detects the adapter and assigns it to /dev/ttyUSB1:

eKey still won't work in this case because it's expecting the fingerprint reader to be on /dev/ttyUSB0.

The only 'solution' is to reboot Wiser which then comes back up with everything working - USB adapter assigned to /dev/ttyUSB0 and consequently ekey detecting the fingerprint reader - everything is okay until the next time the above kernel messages appear.

I have tried 2 different USB-RS485 adapters and the problem occurs in both. 

Is this a bug in the kernel / USB driver? how do I get this resolved?
Thank you!
