Okay, not *all* of the usb subsystem is gone - I can still find the two hubs, but the devices off them are lost to Linux. The problem comes from trying to get an STV680 based USB camera to work with my computer - it feeds 20 images in rapid succession into the computer, and then thinks it has taken its full capacity of images, and requests from the computer for more images results in the camera crashing, leading to the stv680.o module failing, and taking out usblp.o with it. At that point, I cannot access the camera (or my usb printer - luckily my main printer is still on parport), and insmod and either module doesn't get through the usb hubs to the devices.
Is there a way of restarting the usb subsystem (the core of which is in the kernel proper) without restarting the system? Would it be possible if the entire usb subsystem was compiled as modules? -- Mark L.
