Kindle no longer mounting

mdovell · 11-11-2010, 09:13 PM

I use ubuntu and for some reason it is not being found. In fact plugging it in via the usb cable causes the os to think that another form of the internet is being switched (wired, wifi etc)

I have a odd feeling it might not have been unmounted right. I can try using it in windows tomorrow

What actually appears in dmesg when you plug the Kindle?

Ideally, it should be something like

Code:

usb 2-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 70
ehci_hcd 0000:00:1d.7: port 3 reset error -110
hub 2-0:1.0: hub_port_status failed (err = -32)
hub 2-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3
usb 6-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5
usb 6-1: not running at top speed; connect to a high speed hub
usb 6-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1949, idProduct=0004
usb 6-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 6-1: Product: Amazon Kindle
usb 6-1: Manufacturer: Amazon
usb 6-1: SerialNumber: <S/N here>
scsi36 : usb-storage 6-1:1.0
scsi 36:0:0:0: Direct-Access     Kindle   Internal Storage 0100 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2
sd 36:0:0:0: [sdb] 6410688 512-byte logical blocks: (3.28 GB/3.05 GiB)
sd 36:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off
sd 36:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 0f 00 00 00
sd 36:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through
sd 36:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through
 sdb: sdb1
sd 36:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through
sd 36:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk

(Minus the port reset, failed enumeration & fallback to fullspeed, hopefully).

Or if you're using usbnet:

Code:

usb 2-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 68
ehci_hcd 0000:00:1d.7: port 3 reset error -110
hub 2-0:1.0: hub_port_status failed (err = -32)
hub 2-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 3
usb 6-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4
usb 6-1: not running at top speed; connect to a high speed hub
usb 6-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0525, idProduct=a4a2
usb 6-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
usb 6-1: Product: RNDIS/Ethernet Gadget
usb 6-1: Manufacturer: Linux 2.6.26-rt-lab126/fsl-usb2-udc
cdc_ether 6-1:1.0: usb0: register 'cdc_ether' at usb-0000:00:1d.1-1, CDC Ethernet Device, ee:49:00:00:00:00

(Again, hopefully without the port reset, failed enumeration & fallback to fullspeed).

I tried to turn on the wireless and a note came on when syncing
A reset fixed everything.. :-)
