OHCI Host Controler Died

[Remo Inverardi <invi@your.toilet.ch>]

I'm running Debian SID with a custom Linux 2.6.0-test5 kernel on my
Compaq Evo N800v notebook. When running Windows XP in VMware, and
accessing an Aladdin eToken (cryptographic USB smartcard) from my
virtual machine, the USB host controller crashes immediately.

Here's the interesting part of lspci:

Here's my kernel config:

> CONFIG_USB=y
> # CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is not set
> CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y
> # CONFIG_USB_BANDWIDTH is not set
> # CONFIG_USB_DYNAMIC_MINORS is not set
> # CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD is not set
> CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD=y
> # CONFIG_USB_UHCI_HCD is not set

Here's the interesting part of syslog:

By the way, if I insert the token when VMware is *not* running,
/proc/bus/usb shows that the token was detected correctly:

Any ideas?

Thanks for your time, Remo
