lsusb -vd problem

Hello,
recently I was playing with lsusb command.
So I plug in my usb stick, mounted it at /media/usbstick and i gave this command:

$ lsusb -vd xxxx:xxxx

and everything worked fine ( I saw all info about my pendrive ).
But after that another lsusb command did not displayed any usb devices attached. My usb stick was still plugged in, it was mounted ( according to /etc/mtab ) but it seemed it was no longer available ( it disappeared in /proc/bus/usb/devices also ). And I couldn't write any files to it ( /media/usbstick was empty ).
I can always repeat that process, at any time, so is that a bug?

I tried, I failed, no matter. Try again, fail again, fail better.

Re: lsusb -vd problem

Don't think so that used to happen with my CrapPod allot try changing the USB port your putting it in ( if you have some in the back test those ) and also try a live distro to see if it's just in Arch.
