USB Ports not working

Hello. SlTaz x64 weekly. Lenovo V580c laptop.

Looks like USB ports without any power after booting in SliTaz.

I can't connect even mouse.

When I coonect my smartphone, then it's not charging.

USB flash drive, anything.

Still have a test to do with the kernel but I don't have many hope...

Ok, I found solution.

Just Disable "USB 3.0 Mode" in BIOS (Config tab).

You're a lucky man :-)

Unfortunately, I don't have this option in my bios and tiziano' computer is too old to have USB3...

Re: USB Ports not working

Hi guys,

coming back to this issue after months, thanks to Ceel. I do have a Slitaz 5.0 version on a USB2 Stick. My aged laptop have been set aside together with Slitaz 4.0, meanwhile my wife purchased a new 64 lenovo  which is good performing. I'd like to test Slitaz out of the stick and this suggestion ignited my curiosity.

I'm used to change old BIOS settings but, I'm new with UEFI BIOS settings.

Any suggestion how to set it for a USB booting without creating any troubles to my wife's machine?
