[Solved] xhci_hcd, command ring failed, HC died, usb hub failed

Hi,

There's a lot of error messages I get when I boot up. I took a picture of them: http://imgur.com/a/stQnV

Here's my dmesg: http://sprunge.us/dOcM

And here's lspci: http://sprunge.us/icAe

This error happened recently when I switched my hard drive into a new computer. The hardware on the old harddrive was a lot older than this hardware, and I use a graphics card this time instead of the built in. It also switch the ram from ddr2 to ddr3 if that makes a difference.

I think there's particularly an issue with usb 3.0. This motherboard enables it.

I considered reinstalling from the iso, but when I booted to the usb, it used UEFI, and there were the same errors and more on that start up screen. Then it hung, and I restarted.

Other than the error messages in start, everything appears as it usually does except that when I first startx, I get this broken streak of color, then the screens go black, and then I get my desktop.

Sorry if I'm not suppose to list a bunch of errors in one thread. I figured it was better than making several threads for each error.

Thanks.

EDIT: I'm thinking that one source of the problem would be that the old hardware was EFI, but the new one was UEFI. Would I need to re-install then? A thread here, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=194038, the OP has the same errors and motherboard as I do.

Did you remember to rebuild your kernel with mkinitcpio after moving the drive into the new hardware?

I did forget to run mkinitcpio. I ran that now, and there seems to be less error messages, but some still exist. Here is pictures of them. http://imgur.com/a/HncjK

I think maybe it is a driver issue.

Edit: fixed with adding iommu=soft to kernel options.
