Just to show how trivial it really is 1. Edit /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/GENERIC (or i386 instead of amd64 if your still using it) to comment out the xhci line (line 327 in 12.2-RELASE-pl3) to remove USB 3.0 support 2. cd /usr/src 3. make kernel 4. etcupdate 5. reboot Done.... how hard is that? -- Aryeh M.
