If the connection feels in the slightest bit loose, then it can lose connection with the tiniest vibration. It doesn't necessarily have to be on the end of a cable that gets moved (like a mouse), it only has to momentarily break then reconnect to upset the computer. I've had that with a brand new USB hub. I had to bend the tangs in its USB sockets to make them grip the plugs properly. Any long-time used USB connectors are quite likely to be weakened, whether that's a connector that you keep plugging and unplugging, or even one that's always got the same thing connected. The electrical contacts don't have a particularly strong grip inside a USB connection, and the mechanical bits that hold the plug in place are quite important. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1127.19.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Aug 25 17:23:54 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
