Package: base Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable I control a four relays board throught an USB cable connected to a Xen Dom0 running Debian 6.0.5.
It works great: I can switch on and off the relays through some "echo" into /dev/ttyUSB0 (echo -e "\xff\x01\x01" > /dev/ttyUSB0). I added a crontab to send such echo every 15 minutes. It works great at the begining. But after some hours, I get this error message in /var/log/syslog each time I "echo" to ttyUSB0: #---------------------8<----------------------8<---------------------- Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.865609] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: Unable to write latency timer: -62 Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.869623] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: ftdi_set_termios FAILED to set databits/stopbits/parity Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.871604] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: ftdi_set_termios urb failed to set baudrate Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.875622] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: urb failed to clear flow control Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.879604] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: urb failed to clear flow control Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.881620] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: error from flowcontrol urb Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.885623] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: Unable to write latency timer: -62 Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.889637] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: ftdi_set_termios FAILED to set databits/stopbits/parity Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.891622] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: ftdi_set_termios urb failed to set baudrate Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.895616] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: urb failed to clear flow control Aug 18 09:04:32 zen kernel: [1677762.903189] ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: error from flowcontrol urb #---------------------8<----------------------8<---------------------- I have to unplug the USB cable and plug it back to get it to work again.
