Hi,

I'm seeing spontaneous reboots when using a Prolific Technology PL2303
Serial adapter (this is a serial to USB convertor) for a palm-pilot full
backup (using pilot-xfer) on one of my FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE machines.
The reboots are reproduceable. Nothing shows up in the logs.
Small data transfers, like syncing my addressbook, go without problems.

Here is the problem-box relevant dmesg log:

FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE #2: Sat Oct 26 16:36:31 CEST 2002
uplcom0: Prolific Technology PL2303 Serial adapter (ATEN/IOGEAR UC232A), rev 1.10/2.02, addr 2
uhci0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> port 0xb400-0xb41f irq 9 at device 4.2 on pci0
usb0: <Intel 82371AB/EB (PIIX4) USB controller> on uhci0
usb0: USB revision 1.0

My other FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE machine runs the backup without problems
using the same PL2303 Serial adapter (and palm pilot ;-).

FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE #0: Sat Oct 26 19:16:48 CEST 2002
uplcom0: Prolific Technology PL2303 Serial adapter (ATEN/IOGEAR UC232A), rev 1.10/2.02, addr 2
uhci0: <Intel 82801CA/CAM (ICH3) USB controller USB-A> port 0x1800-0x181f irq 10 at device 29.0 on pci0
usb0: <Intel 82801CA/CAM (ICH3) USB controller USB-A> on uhci0
usb0: USB revision 1.0

But it has a different USB controller chipset.

Is this perhaps a known issue with the 82801CA/CAM ICH3 USB controller ?

regards,
