Do you get a timeout shortly after you plug the device in and usbd shows it as detected? I use "usbdebug" in plan9.ini, so I may be getting more diagnostics than you do, but this seems to be the general effect from about a month ago, at least on the various bits of hardware I have around here. I haven't tried VMware of late. ++L
