USB 3 - Crazy Larry - 03-22-2016

I have a usb 3 addon card and it doesn't show up in LL....Is usb 3 supported?

Re: USB 3 - Wirezfree - 03-22-2016

Hi,
I assume you mean a pci type card.?
To help, open a terminal and do the following commands, post the results back..

Code:
lsusb

Code:
lspci

Code:
lsmod

for usb3 I think you need to be seeing a driver xhci .?

A long time ago I fitted a serial card in a PC, would not work.
Till I figured out it had some protective film on the edge connector... : Smile

As an extra addition to the answers of Wirezfree. A USB device can be recognized as following (using your problem to identify USB 3.0)

Bus *** Device ***: ID xxxx:yyyy Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub

So if you enter one of the mentioned terminal commands, look for a value similar as i proved. If you see a line ending with Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub then you now you have USB 3.0 support.

Linux started supporting USB 3.0 since kernel version 2.6.31, released in 2009.
