How NEC uPD720101 USB chip work well on linux2.6.12

[JohnsonCheng]

Correct it. 
I only turn on OHCI in kernel configuration, not UHCI.

Thanks,

I tried this case before, only turn on UHCI option in kernel. The conclusion
is two USB port have the same result ( Kernel Oops), and another one has no
response. Do you know if I want to set these three USB port sharing the same
IRQ, where to modify it in kernel 2.6.12?

Thanks,
Johnson Cheng

I recently came across similar trouble with a chip from this series, the
uPD720113 and another one in a off-the-shelf USB hub which I tried for
reference.
It may have been even the 101, but I'm not sure.

Anyways, I've also seen hard resets with 2.6.12 to 2.6.13-rc-something,
albeit in a x86-environment. The system would reset hard when plugging
something after the hub or the hub itself, in case of the 113 it crashed
100% as soon as the hub was attached or detected during bootup. With the
off-the-shelf hub, it was somewhat more random.

In my case, disabling the EHCI controller in the BIOS helped, so you may
try to disable the USB "2.0" support in the kernel config and see what
happens.
No problems running the system with only UHCI for some weeks now.

I've deferred this problem because Hi-Speed is not an issue to me now,
but I'd be curious to hear and test things if somebody had a take on
this.
