Device disappears after 8 seconds when trying to use

Hello Michael,

I am trying to use a USB device that is a (Atmel ISP Programmer). The server is Ubuntu Linux and the client is a windows 10 desktop. When I select the USB device on the windows computer and select use this device. It changes status to say "In use by you" then 8 seconds later it just disappears from the list and doesn't work on the windows machine. Am I doing something wrong or maybe its just not compatible? I seen some people posting logs, how do I go about getting the logs to post for everyone to see?

Thank you for your time.

#2

Yes a log would be good, do this on the server

grep vhusbd /var/log/syslog

and post the output here

#3

Thank you, here is the output.

grep vhusbd /var/log/syslog

OK it seems to disconnecting itself, i dont think its compatible.

(SURPRISE UNBOUND means that the device hardware decided it wanted to disconnect from the server itself, even though you didnt pull the plug. It might be some power issue im not sure)

Okay, thanks for looking. I appreciate your time! Have a great day!
