USB keyboard sometimes not detected after boot

Hi,

I just installed Arch with GRUB on EFI partition. My keyboard is Corsair Strafe RGB.

If keyboard is detected correctly after boot I get "usbhid 1-1:1.2: couldn't find an input interrupt endpoint" error.

hidraw: raw HID events driver (C) Jiri Kosina
usbhid 1-1:1.2: couldn't find an input interrupt endpoint

But sometimes keyboard is not detected, I get "usb 1-1: can't set config #1, error -110" error and there's also "usb: port power management may be unreliable" message:

Other USB devices like mouse are detected correctly, so how can I fix it for keyboard?

Re: USB keyboard sometimes not detected after boot

The

kernel: usb: port power management may be unreliable

error is explained succinctly here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/question … ually-mean

First, did you made certain that particular model of Corsair keyboard is supported? You also have a shit load of USB ports and it looks like several of them are USB 3.0 (xHCI). Check your BIOS settings for ways to disable XHCI handoff, or just disable USB 3 altogether until you narrow down the issue. Eliminate the USB 3 ports, move the keyboard to different USB 2 ports, try different configurations if you have several USB devices, etc. Also make sure your PSU is capable of supporting everything you have setup and plugged in.

Start here and read the issues and README files, etc (this is the AUR package source):

Re: USB keyboard sometimes not detected after boot

Also, this sounds right in the ballpark. Might be a firmware issue, but don't worry about that until you eliminated driver and HUB and power issues. "lsusb" and "lsmod" can help quite a bit here.

Re: USB keyboard sometimes not detected after boot

in my experience those lit up keyboards are too much for older hardware to power, are you using a USB 1 port in an old tower?

Forgot to mention those particular Corsair keyboards also have their own USB (possibly 3) port as well. Possibly a micro SD slot as well for alternative profile storage, but not sure on that. They are really nice mechanical gaming hardcore keyboards, I almost bought one last year.

Edit: Just saw your city. I'm from Northern CA, but I had a crazy ass road trip end in Nanaimo when I was 18, slept on the floor of this girl I met on IRC. Loved BC, loved that island.
