I am running Debian on a Lenovo Thinkpad X240. Some time ago I upgraded from Stretch to Buster. Since then the USB-Keyboard and the USB-Mouse don't work. I can't read or access any USB-Sticks either. The system is up to date and I've rebooted it several times.
The keyboard and the mouse are recognized (I see them when running
lsusb
), but running dmesg
I get a *Device is not authorized for usage* message. I also get this message when plugin in any USB-memory.
> dmesg
[10599.977463] usb 2-2: new low-speed USB device number 10 using xhci_hcd
[10600.134705] usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=XXXX, idProduct=XXXX, bcdDevice= 1.07
[10600.134709] usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0
[10600.135024] usb 2-2: Device is not authorized for usage
What should I do to continue troubleshooting and get the USBs working?
