Hello
A few weeks ago I bought a new laptop, made by lenovo, model ideapad slim 3i 15irh10. I have Arch with Gnome installed on it, and my system is fully updated.
One of the laptop's usb-a ports works as expected with mouse, keyboard and two android phones, but it frequently (not always) fails with a flash drive. Sometimes the kernel log reports i/o error immediately after connecting the flash drive, and if I try to copy data to it the kernel log reports many errors with the flash drive, and the file manager (nautilus) aborts the data transfer at some point and then shows an error message about failure due to i/o error. The i/o errors never occur when I use this same flash drive with my desktop computer or with another usb-a port of the laptop.
Also the kernel log reports many ACPI errors, could this be the cause of the inconsistent problem with the flash drive?
Here is the complete kernel log after boot and after a failure when trying to copy data to the flash drive:

What to do to fix the problematic usb-a port? Is there a workaround at least?
Thanks for reading.
