Package: linux-image-amd64
Version: 4.9+80+deb9u11
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
On old laptop RoverBook E514L (system chipset SiS 760) was installed Debian 10
+ LXDE.
Everything worked like a charm (including USB mouse and pendrives) until recent
update via apt.
After update all usb mices aren't recognised (dmesg shows no system reaction on
plugging them in/out),
usb flash drives sometimes are recognised, sometimes not. laspci shows found
USB hubs meanwhile as usual
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
System reinstallation of the most recent Debian Buster 10.7 had no effect (no
USB mouse again) as 10.7
seems to incorporate the most recent kernel already.
The only way to render system usable again was to install Debian 9 iso image
and then restrict kernel
image from updtaing. All other packages were updated with no issues - mices and
pendrives work as usual.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Other systems I have (different laptops and desktops, not SiS based) work with
no issues on 10.7 and recent
kernel, so I assume this bug is related to SiS chipset only
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I can guess that SiS based systems are not that widely used nowadays but I
wanted to let others know that such
an issue exists.

Hi
This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.
If you can reproduce it with
- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports
please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.
Regards,
Salvatore
